V8 Brake Upgrade
Well it's done but not without a drama or two
Fell at the first hurdle and couldn't get the locking wheel nut off the drivers side ~(I can hear you all telling me to chuck them in the bin) well after recruiting some help from my friendly D2 boys club mates Iwe managed to chisel the aluminium cap from the locker and then popped to Screwfix for a set of Urwin bolt removers and 10 minutes later it was off
Second hurdle was a trolley jack that would not lower, the gear at the bottom had come off and trying to fix it under the car was proving a little difficult, so, with a D2 bottle jack and a few blocks of wood we managed to get the trolley jack out and replace with an axle stand
Well all that got done and then the easy bit to be honest, followed Mr B's Bible and all was well

Then just before we were finished I broke my belt and my trousers kept falling done
Not driven yet as I will be buying some new nuts in the morning and fitting them before I take it anywhere, will be binning the rear locking wheel nuts at the same time
