Big Brake UpGrade Fitting Tips

[THiNK]

Any tips on fitting my big brake upgrade tomorrow to make it a smooth upgrade?

How easy is it and what could go wrong?

Thanks,

if you've never done it before pay a garage to do it

its straightforward enough i believe but in all honesty get it wrong and its your life on the line!

Totally agree - I have a mechanic doing it for me as you say 'brakes' are important and not one to be messed with.

Just wondered if there was anything he might come back to me with like 'you need this extra' etc etc

He's quoted 2 hours to fit - does that seem right?

ah right, the way you worded your question it sounded as if you were doing ti yourself 

it is a direct fit

2 hours seems a lot    bloke who did mine did both side in less than an hour; cost me £20
