bet your pissed off you need to buy brake pads in sets too incase you happen to have a seized caliper
personall i think selling kits is a better idea,,,,, who the fuck wants just 1 spark plug and who would change a headgasket and leave the rest of them
you know there is over 25 different parts to purchase when doing a head gasket on a transit,,, but you have to add EACH FUCKING PART NUMBER
gearbox but not supply the pinch bolts or hub nuts means some tight arses can bodge a job and have the wheels come loose on the hub carrier or lower arm to seperate
id rather kits,,,,, do the job properly with all the correct parts and not worry about snapping nuts ect when working on your car on a sunday afternoon so you cant finish a job
The other parts on the brakes are fine so are the pins, theres no need to replace the pins imo
And the housing and gaskit were fine aswell
I needed to replaced the brakepads as it failed on them being low on the mot,but i also changed the disks aswell
The one thing i didnt buy from them was the discs,they wanted £90 without pads,i found a company on ebay selling mintex discs and pads included for £45
