I have 1.6mm washers (they were ones I had at work) will these be ok?
Well the pads everyone on here recommend are Ferodo DS or Mintex 1144. I went for the DS ones because there were a few more recommendations for them than mintex, but it's up ot you!!
I'm not sure on the 1.6mm washers. I used 1mm ones as recommended on here and used a vernier caliper to check. If you lookat this pic:-
you'll see disk sits perfectly centralised in the caliper.
Not a hard job to do at all!
