Did some odd jobs :-)
Fitted a blue roll dispenser in the back.

Touched up a few little scratches on the front, they were on the panel when i bought it but sick of seeing them.


Beefed up security in between touch ups.

:lol:
Et voila, it's not perfect but also not visible unless you bend over and stare, I'll polish it flat later.

I think big disk on small caliper won't fit and small disk on big caliper the pads will miss on the outside :?: :idea:

Best off getting the tape measure out :-)

Have you done it yet?

That's OK I won't tell if you don't :lol:

They probably aren't used all of the way, bout 10mm unused in mk7 rear disks, bloody disgraceful :?

I mean what's the point of not using the whole length that is available eh.
:shock:

:? So little discs are 288 and big one 308 mm that's 20mmbigger so 10mm each side and that would concur with proffesser loots findings
What bloody difference is 10mm going to make each side of the hub
Bloody ford :lol:
So I just get some cheap ones then :P
Only ..just looking on egay and ferodo have listed 2 different part numbers for pads for different size discs
:x
Fooked that I'm taking the caliper off and having a measure again :lol:

I measured the discs ages ago
Took that pic on the..
17 of June that's how long I've been thinking about new discs for :oops:

I'm just well impressed your pretending to use this new fangled measurement system. .. I'd say you have a conversion to hands and feet written somewhere though to make sense of everything ))

:lol: :lol: it is a tad rusty under there the body's ok but the front subframe looks like it should be on a tramps van

Don't worry all measurements are converted back to hands feet and turnips once its been divided by a pie
We don't divide fractions here at gay skull

Typical of ebays poor service :x
I ordered them yesterday and they were supposed to here on Friday
But they are here today :x
And I ordered Mintex? Why have they got FoMoCo and a ford part number cast into them ?
Have I been sent low quality poorly designed genuine discs :x
And then there's the box they came in
I've been bloody ripped off again
Bloody ford
Bloody egay
Bloody postman
