    Rear discs?

    I'm due to be changing my rear discs. I have bought standard ones with the abs ring and bearing already attached. Are these still just a simple swap like the front ones would be, or is there a little more to it when the bearing and abs ring is involved? Thanks.

    Rear Sachs

    Hi, I collected my new trophy yesterday (437) and the rear dampers have been changed by one of the previous owners to the normal 182's. I am wanted to go back to the original Sachs ones. Can you still buy new rear Sachs dampers from renault or will I have to hunt else where? Thanks.
