Williams 2 rear discs

[Dean250]

One of the first jobs I'm going to tackle on my williams is the brakes ready for getting the car MOT'd.

I've ordered Brembo solid discs and pads all around, they were listed as being for a williams 2 94-95, the rear's don't have the bearing pressed into them they just look like a disc that bolts onto the hub.

with the modern renault sports the rear discs contain the the bearing that seats on the stub axel, I was talking to P4ck's last night and he told me the rears should be like this on the williams, have I bought the wrong item?

Thanks Dean

I'm sure the bearings are in built in to the discs dean

rears have bearings, fronts are a direct fit to the front hub.

[jamiecrookston83]

Yup. The rear discs are the exact same as 172/182 rear discs and they come with the bearing pressed in.

I have just bought rear discs and pads from Renault.. £205 for discs and pads inc VAT and they came with bearings.. I have some separate rear bearings if u find you need some..

Is that from your local dealer?

[northy]

they genuine renault bearings?

[Dean250]

Ok fellas, I thought it might be, I did see the separate bearing kit, best to buy the complete unit's they to save damaging the bearings!

[Vandella]

I've never had issues with non genuine rears, fronts are a different story altogether though :evil:

[Dean250]

Would those be ok for a car without ABS?

They are a very good price!, I've got rear pads already but could always sell them on!

[FATBOY]

yes! my car is a williams 1 (non ABS)

[Dean250]

The page says they aren't sutable but if they fit then there a great price!

That's just to cover their arses so people can't scam refunds for them being a retard & buying the wrong ones, only difference between ABS & non-abs discs is abs rings being slid onto them :winkey:

[Dean250]

That's good then will order them there around half the price of Renault, I've got some decent ones for the front's so should be ok!
