When I did mine Nige I just used a standard 32mm

Well I haven't got a 32mm so if I'm buying one I might as well get an impact one ..

and its "only" just under £9 .. then £35 for the bar .. still .. you can never have too many tools ...

My thoughts are simple .. even buying/hiring the tools and parts the bill will be less than £100 ... doubt a garage would do the job for less ... and I'll know its been done correctly ..

Just a thought but if one's on its' way... Also an ideal opportunity to check the front brakes over, given the mileage you're likely to be doing over the summer.

Thumbs Up!

'Tis a thought ...

Brakes would be checked anyway as it was getting a full check before easter anyway. Did the Oil & Filter today as I had the jack out ..

Did my pass side last week, I had trouble taking out the play, 2 ft breaker, with 3 ft bar and me swinging on the end, still a fraction of play. Couldn't do any more so had to throw it back together, including fitting the hub centre cap.(might be worth getting a new one of these, they can be stubborn and not reseal when refitted)

I have been able to take the play out with these tools before, but not this time Huh

Right ..

Extra tools ... ordered

CDK603 ..... ordered

Torque wrench hire .... arranged

How to .... printed and read ..

Which leads to the next question ... "how to" says "hub carrier" bolts are angle tightened ... which I was always taught means don't reuse as stretched ... anyone any part numbers for replacement bolts so I can drop into dealers and pick em up ... I'm guessing 2 per unit ??

Still don't see either ending in a 6 ... top one looks more like an 8 .. bottom one more like a 5 !!!

Mar 2011 at 14:06 Many thanks ... but that says "caliper bolts" .. those are the small ones I believe ... I was after the part number for the larger ones .. that go to 95NM then 30 then 15 .. Sorry to be a pain .. must reinstall EPC at some point !!

Totally confused now .. Sad

Reinstalled EPC and got nowhere .. Sad

How to thread, http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1175890350

"Reply #4" .... says "Hub Carrier Bolts 95 Nm then 30 then 15" ....

as well as "caliper bolts 30Nm" ... now the latter ones are the ones you get with new new pads ... not a problem 90541295 ....

there are also .. on EPC ... "CALIPER TO STEERING KNUCKLE 90541296"

but nowhere can I find "Hub Carrier" as the script mentions !!!!

My problem is, once I get this in bits, I'll have no transport to get to the stealers ... so I'm trying to get all the bits in advance ..

OK .. with any luck .. the last question .......

http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1175890350

Pictures (and words) at "reply #2" missing .. and I'm guessing they are the actual removal of the hub ... does this need a "hub puller" or can the hub be "knocked off" from the rear ??? The "book of lies" has it being pulled off by fingers !!! after being torqued to 320 NM ?? I don't think so somehow !! (Ch 10 section 9 para 6 )
