I'll be changing my disc again in the next few months, i hope i don't have to go through all that again.
I had a friend giving me a hand who's very mechanically competent and we tried soaking the bolts as much as possible, heat treatment, brute force and a lot of swearing, then when the only bolt we could budge snapped in half i knew it was game over and time for Plan B.
It was a bit more comforting to know that they couldn't budge them at work either!
And there was me thinking i'd quickly change the rear disc and pads.
"How hard can that be?" :'(

More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.
