Front Wheel Vibration

Cheers MM,, :D ,,,I was thinking that myself,,any idea which one,,,,, :D Also noticed on hard accelartion the vibration was less,,,,and under heavy braking the vibration got worse!!!!!!!!!!! Clicky Here Is the above link OK for my gal,,,,,,,,if so I may as well replace them both :) :D :D -
Hi guys,,,,,was told by local tyre fitter, while getting wheels balanced (due to a vibration at 60 to 70 mph) that one was buckled, so instead of replacing the one wheel, I replaced the four alloys, and new tyres,,,,,,,,now the vibration is there all the time at 45mph and higher, I have checked brake disc run out and drive shaft for run out, The brake pads had a 1/2mm difference in wear from the top of the pad to the bottom of the pad,,,,,,anybody any ideas of what could be wrong,,,,,,,last resort is to go to ford for a full suspension check!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! p.s the vibration through the steering wheel is so bad that at 45mph and higher you cant hold the wheel correctly

Good choice - I bought one a couple of weeks ago. I got the Camera Database installed yesterday (ww.pocketgpsworld.co.uk). Better make sure you get a screen protector. The power connector is crap - I've broken my 12v lead already, just ordered another from eBay. If you're after OS mapping as well, GPSMap-OS is freeware and the Pin570 version is being written at the moment. cheers,,,,,ended up getting it today,,,,,,,so far very good,,,,,,,,,thats for the web info,,,,,,,,,while play with it tonight once the battery has had a good charge,,,,,,,cheers

On the rears you need to wind back the piston into the caliper,,,,,on the front it is a just push back affair,,,,,,,,,YES clamp off the flex brake pipe and open the bleed nipple as you do not want to reverse the flow through the ABS and possibly damage a seal or two,,,,,,, ;)

YES use the removal tool,,,it is a reverse spline socket,,gentle hammer the socket to the locking bolt and use a breaker bar and turn it anti-clockwise until the removal tool grips and takes your locking bolt off, but you will need a vice or big pair of mole grips to remove the locking bolt from the removal tool,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,ebay locking bolts are only
