tacomann Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 I've tried to remove the threaded studs from my front and rear brake back plates (that the torque arms bolt to) because I want to clean them up and get them re-plated. However they are absolutely solid and I couldn't get them to budge. Am I right in thinking that they will be threaded into the alloy back plates? Has anyone got any tips on how to remove them? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tacomann Posted February 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 That would explain why I struggled! Thanks very much for the info - you've saved me from potentially breaking them. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
