Right, as posted before i have had some problems with my brakes, ie the vibrate (badly) when braking. I have had new pads, the disc's have been skimmed back down to a flat surface as the were a little warped, so all should have been well.

Not a chance. :upset: Still as bad as they were. Do i need compleatly new disc's, or could it be suspension related, ie: ball joint or loose suspension mount??

Any help as always appreciated.

I thought that if discs were warped then the needed to be replaced?

Thats what i thought, but Revolution in Newcastle can skim them down so there brand new!!! Well thats the idea anyway

i could skim discs down to make them flat. it wouldnt make them new though. all they do is removing little bits at a time on a lathe to remove the high spots untill its flat. so, your discs will be thin as fook.

So is it not a bit of a con then??? I totally see your point. They aint any better at all. I do have a slight crack in the ball joint which i am sure isn't helping.
