Ok, so today i'm changing disks and pads all round, got to first wheel, caliper off etc, no probs, come to the screw and its been semi rounded off by the previous owner, so i've attempted to undo it and it wont budge and is rounding off further, i've soaked in WD40 in another attempt shortly, but what if I can't undo it ? is it a weld a socket on jobby ??

Cheers !

Drill the top off of it and pull the disk off.. Screw should be loose enough to unwind by hand once the tension is off it. Replace when ur done

Yeah just tried that, but seem to be drilling in the centre of the screw, maybe rotating the drill in a circular motion to drill top off ?

Use a bigger drill.

Redult - just drilled it into like a v shape, than whacked in a large straight head screw driver and came out with no fuss !!!
