Hey guys this may sound silly but ,Im changing disc and pads on my dads au 1 tonner tommorow.
And was just wondering if it was much different to a ef falcon because i heard they have sealed hubs? Ive done a far bit of brake work in the past but just not on the front of an Au, so any helpful tips would be a great. Cheers Craig |

Yep, big difference. It's much easier to do the front of an AU as the disc does not contain the bearings - the AU bearings are in the hub, and the disc sits over the top of the hub. Rears are much the same as an EF/EL.

If its a series 1 its the same setup as an EF/EL and if its a Series 2 it has the sealed bearings and hub setup.
