Yes Grief but not as much as doing the brakes and front bottom swinging arms for Laceys Mot on the 19th.
Ordered the discs last month and were in the box until fitting a couple of days ago.The swing arms I have had for some time.
I started taking pictures 1 stage at a time to assist others.Pomeos OSF bottom arm was a dawdle.I thought Laceys would be the same...Fraid not.
I thought I would make task easier by removing the brake disc and giving easy access for the ball joint seperator.
First couple of pics and easy
Note monoblock bricks ready to hold caliper.

Then realised the brake discs were similar on the outside but different on the inside.
The box was for an Alfa 166 BUT found out later that the discs were for a Merc....AARGH
NEVER JUDGE A CAN BY ITS WRAPPER.
This was my metal block....downhill after there took me the whole day to comple job and I had to replace the old discs as I now need to wait until they sort the mess out.
