Description

Swapping Out Your Disc Brake Rotors — With DBA Goodness
> Disc brake rotors are the unsung heroes of your Ford Falcon or Fairlane's braking. They take a hammering from friction and heat, slowly losing their edge. That means longer stopping distances, especially when you're giving it heaps or towing the boat.
Tell-tale Signs Your Rotors Are Toast
• Sounds like a flock of seagulls every time you brake?
• Steering wheel doing the Macarena when you hit the picks?
• Taking longer to pull up than a cafe lunch?
• Rotors look like they've been attacked by a grinder?
• Brake pads wearing unevenly, like your tyres are underinflated?
WOF Woes?
Dodgy disc brake rotors are a dead cert for a WOF failure here in New Zealand. They gotta be above minimum thickness and free from major damage to pass the test.
DIY or Get a Pro?
Difficulty: 6/10
Time Needed: An hour or two per rotor
Gear You'll Need: Jack and stands (never get under a car supported only by a jack!), wheel wrench, socket set, torque wrench, brake cleaner, and fresh brake pads (good idea while you're at it).
Expert Advice
Worn rotors are a no-brainer when it comes to safety. New rotors mean shorter stops and more confidence behind the wheel. DBA rotors are a sweet upgrade, but CARFIX has options for every budget. Bob @ CARFIX is your man for finding the right bits for your Ford. Pop into Bob's Shop for a yarn!
🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist
Before you get cracking, grab these must-haves to make the job safer and easier:
• Brake Cleaner: Blast away that nasty brake dust. Trust me, your lungs will thank you.
• Anti-Seize Caliper Grease: A tiny dab on the caliper bolts will save you headaches next time around.
• Safety Glasses: Protect your peepers from flying debris. No one wants a trip to the eye doctor.
• Nitrile Gloves: Keep your hands clean and avoid absorbing nasty chemicals. These gloves are your best mate.
Fitment Notes
Always swap rotors in pairs to keep braking even-stevens. Double-check your vehicle's specs for the right rotor size and thickness. Some models are divas and need different rotors depending on the year and engine. Bob @ CARFIX is your man for finding the right bits for your Ford. Pop into Bob's Shop for a yarn!

🧰 What Else You'll Need:
• Safety First: Never work under a vehicle supported only by a jack. Always secure it on heavy-duty safety jack stands.
• Brake Dust Protection: Keep a pack of Nitrile Gloves handy to protect your hands from grease and dust.
• Clean and Prep: Use Brake Cleaner to clean the anti-corrosion shipping oil off the new rotors before mounting the calipers.
• Lubrication: Apply caliper grease to caliper slide pins and pad contact points to prevent squealing.
