[QUOTE="mcatrophy, post: 999470, member: 3187"] Yes, I'm well aware of normal disc-brake operation. As it happens, I was investigating a warmer-than-normal brake disc, and simply wanted to see the difference between normal brake drag and no brake drag. Found this way of freeing the brakes using no tools, so a very quick and easy way of possibly investigating wheel bearing noise/play, drive-line chatter or whatever without interference from the brake. Never seen this done before, thought it might be useful to someone, somewhere, sometime. [/QUOTE]
