thc Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 just put some 4pots & discs off a cosworth, but had to put spacers (10mm) behind the discs to stop them rubbing on the wishbones?this has only just left me enough room for my alloys, & i just got some new 18"s but only getting one full turn on yhe nuts?so how easy is it to swap the bolts for longer ones?thanks 4 your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC_Bob Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Im also looking for longer bolts. I think it involves taking the hub off and pressing them out, or banging them with a hammer for a quicker method lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
