Brake Disc Stone/Dust Guards

Hi, just wondering if anyone has the same issue as me, pretty much all four of my dust guards have disintegrated, with only some parts on the front left, and more often than not, they catch and squeak against the running wheels, discs.

Does anyone bother replacing these? I checked the price for new ones are they are pretty expensive, around £70-80 each I think.

Cheers

Stu

do you mean the stone guards for the discs? all mine are in pretty decent condition tbh so i have never had that issue. how have yours got so bad??? all i can suggest is making your own or buy a set of off a breaker of you dont want to splash that kinda cash

Yeah that's them, not sure but most likely Northern Ireland weather, lots of rain, snow, ice and salt, and branches and shit from the farm lanes.

My car never gets a rest through all seasons!

They rust up thanks to the road salt here, front ones need the hubs pushed out of the housing so might be best to wait till you need fresh bearings. Rear ones are bolted behind the discs and aren't too big a job. Scary money from Toyota so second-hand is the way to go.
