While sitting around waiting for paint to dry.. literally

I poked in a little rubber seal type thing on the stud rotor thingy..

Check photo.

How do i get this out.. do i really need to worry about it ?

PS In the photo the rubber bit is still in

it wont let me upload at this time for sum reason..

but basically..

You jack car up... Back left..

Take wheel off..

and there is 5 bolts on a round flat piece, well on that bit is a round piece of rubber blocking a hole

i assume its just to stop shit from getting in there.. or possibly oiling up something, i look inside the hole its just a hollow part

the bit between part with bolts.. and actuall brake disk

if u goto the gallery, and goto QLD, Knores Collection, youll see it in one of the shots with the back left off.. u need to look tho

thanks ppl

Can anybody help him out?

Pull the disc off and have a look. You should be able to access it from the other side with the disc off and replace it if you can still find it. I don't think it's too critical though, the discs are far from water proof.

Thanks strutto!

So i need to take it off to get to it?

Hmm, dont know if its really worth the effort. If i take it off i need to bleed the brakes and stuff dont i?

[strutto]

If you can remove the caliper without disconnecting the brake line, you wont need to bleed the brakes.

My only concern would be that it might get jammed in the drum/shoe for the handbrake...

ok

well ive put the wheel on anyway,

if i can get to it easy then ill do it, otherwise guess itll have to stay in there i spose

Isn't that the access hole for adjusting the handbrake up??. If you slacken off the handbrake you should be able to just pull the drum off the wheelstuds

[knore]

what do u mean?

im fairly sure the whole thing is one piece isnt it?

[caminperth]

51jay is correct. The rubber thingy is the cover for the hole that you use to adjust the handbrake through. I wouldn't worry about it too much, but if you let off the handbrake, pull off the caliper and give the disc a gentle tap it should come off and you can retrieve your plug..
