Has anyone fitted the dust shields to the front hubs with out dismantle the hub ?
Guess the only way to fit them without cracking the hub nut and dismantle t is to cut away a section so it slides over/around the hub

If you manage to get the old bolts out then yes the only way to fit it without taking the hub off is cut a section out and slide it on, just make sure you put it on the right way round so it curves away from the disc.

FYI… if they are missing it’s not a MOT fail.
