Disclaimer - I did search, I promise….
So my new to me 2005 100 series VX Amazon 1HD-FTE has been pinged for bad brakes, so I’ve been buying bits to replace all 4 rotors and have the calipers remanufactured. So far, so good, I’ve replaced the rears without too much of a fight, including new handbrake (parking / emergency brake) pads and fitting hardware.
Now for the fronts - just pulled the front left dust cap, circlip, flange (no gasket present grrr), locking nut (which was only finger tight…), tab washer and adjuster nut (also finger tight) so as you can imagine it’s all pretty mucky in there and over-due a proper sorting…
When pulling the hub / rotor assembly off, the large O ring (for want of a better description) has detached from the backing plate. Does anyone known that part number please as I can’t seem to find the right thing…. See pic.
I think I need to replace the backing plates while I’m here. What a cruddy, messy job
