Just a quick question today: would I be right in assuming that I need an M10 straight spline drive adapter to separate the brake disc from the hub?

I have the set of M8 and M12 bits I used when I removed the head previously, but it seems I need the size between.

It would be helpful if someone could confirm this before I order what I need.

Thanks in advance.

I will have look this week if no one has replied by then. I think you are correct but my shed is snowed in at the moment !

p.s see my other answer ? ?   ,

I have read your other reply and agree.

Before you go rummaging through your shed, let me see if the disc can be skimmed still connected to the hub first.

Thanks again!

If they don't budge, up end the hub onto the wheel studs and spray a load of WD-40 around the bolt heads. and then leave overnight. That worked for me

Thanks, I had actually already done that. 

However, our machinist at work is in agreement that it’s better to try to skim the discs while still bolted to the hubs (as Chris, cam.in.head suggested)

Thanks again though matey, much appreciated.
