Torque to me

I thought I'd check the true condition of my discs, so I removed the rear offside rim. Looks OK, despite my earlier assessment that it needed replacing; doesn't even need a skim before abusing it with Carbon.

 

Well, might as well remove those annoying backplates while I'm here.

Hang on! don't want to remove callipers and hub unless I know the torque settings and which parts are mandatory replacement (e.g. retaining nuts) to put it back.

 

Now I have a Supe sitting with it's legs in the air in my garage. I'd like to get the backplates off before putting those wheels back on.

Who has the data please?

 

Any special tools required, it looks pretty standard stuff?

I used an air powered cut-off saw which is like an angle-grinder but smaller. If you do use any kind of rotary cutter watch the sparks don't damage anything.

 

Yours,
