The disks are abit of a pain due to being in board
You need to get the drive shafts out the way ,
I wouldn't undo the nut in the hub tho because it houses shims that are put in certain places for the camber adjustment
Witch you don't really want to disturb
I'm sure someone will have a good guide to doing them
And there is 3 or so choices for the rear brake disks witch i found out too make sure you have the measurements at the ready For the new ones
Good luck

Give the drive shaft nuts a good soak for a few days, clean the threads and off you go. Use a long bar to crack them. The longest part is loosening the caliper nuts but with a bit of patience you will get there. You may get sufficient clearences with the caliper properly supported to. Remove the disc without cracking loose the brake pipe. Remember to wire the fasteners when you are finished. No probs.
Well. Finally got a chance to sort this today. The discs are fine so i got a nice set of EBC pads, cheapest option first!
Off with the old on with the new and see what difference they make if any.
Start taking of the n/s pads...some bodge repairer has used an effing nail rather than a split pin which had rusted through. The top half had caught just under the pad causing the noise and groove in the disc and in getting there has slit the dustseal on the caliper.
questions are...
who the f@@k would use a nail and why..
and anyone got a dust seal for the n/s rear and can tell me how to replace before next wednesday without taking the caliper out.
oh and who would use a nail!!!!
