just a bit yeah.... first attempts kept on hitting the pads, bit of patience and a couple of calming stella's sorted it in the end...... though think the kids have picked up a few choice swear words..

:lol: i used to get them lined up with by sticking aload of copper slip on the spacer disc and that held it in place whilst i lined up the bolts winkeye

How did th ewrapping of the rims hold up?? I used a roll of shrink wrap and a roll and half of brown tape :lol:
