I've been meaning to do the service the rear brakes and with the fine weather and this lockdown decided now was the time to give it my first ever go.It's been a challenge but I'm getting there slowly from struggling to get the discs off etc so could do with a little help and advice of course.First up the caliper bolts were held in with blue coloured threadlock I have some red here somewhere would that be suitable or only blue or nothing?The spring cross clip came off in 2 pieces and it's for the vented brakes if I can't get one could I nut and bolt it?Gm shoes are on it and they have worn about a third and appear to have bits of rust embedded in this surface clean and reuse or bin?Discs are rusted on the outside lip and there is a 1mm lip inside and out,clean this off or replace?Recommended Discs? Pads are likewise worn but still meaty but if I change discs then new pads too any recommended? Thanks in advance for any tips
