On the IFS truck you'll need a 2-1/8" BIG socket for removing the wheel hub nuts. Not sure if it's the same on solid axle but I have one if it is required?

yay, now have functioning brakes!

nut wasnt the full extent of the drama tho, discs were 6mm smaller (in diameter) and the callipers wouldnt take the pads! = nightmare!

managed to re-build callipers to take the discs and pads, so should all be straight forward next time round! 8)
