Best way to clean hubs up before new discs?
I'll be performing a brake renewal on my car soon, what is the best way to clean up the hubs before the new ones go on?
Also is it worth putting copper grease on before fitting the new ones? Cheers. |
stiff wire brush ;)

OK cool, It's just people have mentioned some attachment thing that goes in the end of a drill.

Not needed on the hub.

I clean the hubs off with a wire brush , and wire brush attachment in a 4" grinder , the hubs need to be perfectly clean of any rust and muck , I even clean off the centre to make sure the disc is a perfect fit back on.
I always put some copper slip onto the hub face before putting the discs back on , it should stop the rust building back up , and make the discs easier to remove thinking ahead Cheers Ian |
Thanks guys. :thumb:
