Brakes........

Post by WAFWOTTBI » Fri Mar 07, 2014 8:36 pm

New discs and pads required up front,going for oem discs and carbotech pads... bobcat i think... will report on possible noise from pads... just need a little bit more stopping power. hoping the bobcats will achieve this.... see if noise is an issue... should have pads next week ..........Waffy ........ :blackrs4:
