To complete the thread, the front discs and pads were similar with a few distinct differences. First job, on the trolley jack. I’ve got a 3 tonne SGS trolley jack with a bit more lift for SUVs, which is perfect albeit very heavy. I’ve got an ice hockey puck with an 8mm slot cut in it that I use to cover the jacking points and avoid any damage.
Next, off with the T50 disc retaining screw, then a pair of mole grips to remove the spring. Next the two plastic caps on the caliper pins and the 11mm hex (that I bought especially for this) to remove the pins.
