Great content my bro 👏 Edit: Only thing I’d say is completely avoid copper grease anywhere near your brakes. In-fact, avoid that thing completely. Many alternatives available out there
Caliper bolts have a torque setting . Also I would not advise anyone to buy brake parts off the internet. I have had customers supply parts that are not even good fakes. There are warnings of brake parts, spark plugs, filters, bushings, clutches and suspension arms coming into the trade all the time. Some are very good , our LUK clutch rep said some are so good now they have had trouble spotting them but have now put additional security on parts. . Also be aware many fakes are not that much cheaper , which gives the added impression that they are genuine. Personally the only difference I could see between the real NGK spark plug and the fake one , was the missing ground electrode which had scored the bore.....
Ahh yes, i should have mentioned about the calliper bolt torque settings. I was aware of fake spark plugs but i’ve not heard of fake brakes tbh. Scary world out there indeed
Caliper slide pin lubrication with silcone grease while you were there, vital part of any brake job to prevent sticking calipers which are common on MX5s also careful about removing metal from the pad (more likely corrosion on caliper mount bracket needs cleaning instead) or they will rattle over bumps. That quote seemed a little iffy though ! Nice to see the MX5 again 😊
while it might be quick i remember when i do mine the pads are the easy part of it the clip that goes on the side being a Ford took like 10 times the time of doing the pads as they are a pain in the ass
Great content my bro 👏
