Ford Ka front discs.

[assuhors]

I am going to be changing the discs on my daughters Ka at the weekend. I assume the large nut in the middle holds them on.Anyone know what size this is?

you don't need to disturb the large driveshaft nut. you will, however need a 7mm allen key. remove 2x 7mm allen key pins to remove caliper. remove caliper carrier (2x 18mm head bolts if i remember correct).
remove disc. they quite often rust onto the hub so may take a bit of persuasion.

reassemble is a reverse of removal.

as with all things, if in doub't don't and leave to a garage. remember its your daughters car etc etc.

davieboy is right, also make sure you clean up the flange that the disc is fitted to until it's clear of rust.

There really should be a law stopping this kind of thing!
