Fitting 312mm disks - All sorted

[scarr89]

Just sheared while undoing this screw but on the other side...



What does it do? Is it important?

Also how do you remove the disk? Do you have to remove the big main hub nut?

Cheers

its just the brake disk locating screw so it holds it all together when you're refitting the wheel etc, its not essential and they usually corrode to the point of drilling them out. Mine was the same.

to remove the disk you need to remove or drill that screw head off thentake the caliper/carrier off and the disk will then come off.

Just makes it easier when bolting the wheel on but not needed.
