Replacing Brakes
- Thread starter bre97815
- Start date
This is a job that I wil have to tackle on my 8011 soon so I am real interested to hear your experience.
In the workshop manual I have it says to "remove the outer brake disk with facing" - (it doesn't give any guidance on how to do this though) and to then unscrew the adjusting nuts from the disk brake tie rod and remove the disk brake.
From the diagram there appear to be 3 brake disks and 4 brake linings. I'm not sure but it would appear that the innermost brakes are for the handbrake and the outermost brakes(nearest wheel) are the footbrake.
Why there are some many disks and linings I really do not know. Car disk brakes are really simple in comparision.
Maybe Crystalman or William might have done this and could give us guidance on what to do.
