Default AP disc direction

Quick question guys, what way should these discs go on, I've searched the net and seen them put on both ways so I'm a little confused, kit was bought second hand so no instructions etc.

I've put them on this way in the pic, in the pic forward would be clockwise ie the front of the car woukd be to the right of the pic if that makes sense.

Any help would be much appreciated

The way you've got them is the same way I fitted mine, I bought mine new and were labeled which side was which. Hope this helps

Cheers Jason

It is the vains in the centre of the disk which are important, not the grooves on the face.

Yup, that picture doesnt give any clues as to which direction.

On mine the curve of the J hooks point forwards...that's why they are called J hooks.


Mine certainly look like those.


Worth putting a pic up face on so the veins show
