Rear disc removal
Hi,
I cannot seem to get the rear discs off the car. I have removed the calipers, and released the handbrake but the discs will not come fully off the hub. I have tried to get screwdriver underneath and pry them off but to no avail. Is it possible to screw into the 2 smaller holes in the disc so as to push it off ? Any ideas what size bolt size I might need ?
Thanks

Thanks for the reply Andy,
Found this too http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/showthrea...r+disc+removal
Didn't help me from damaging the handbrake mechanism ! The first one came off fine but the second disc caught and broke the shoe retaining pins !! The car rolled forward and the jack slipped ... even in gear ! It's been one kunt of a day...
