Description

Disc Brake Rotor Swap-Out: DBA to the Rescue!
> Disc brake rotors are the unsung heroes in your Ford Tickford or FPV Falcon's braking setup. They're what your brake pads grip onto to bring you to a halt. But, give 'em enough stick, and they'll wear down, warp, or even crack – especially if you drive it like you stole it.

Signs Your Rotors Are Toast
• Brake pedal doing the Macarena (pulsating or vibrating)
• Brakes sound like a rusty gate opening
• Taking longer to pull up than a cafe lunch queue
• Rotors look like the surface of the moon (cracked or grooved)
• Brake pads wearing unevenly? That's a worry.

Will it pass WOF?
Worn or dodgy disc brake rotors are a dead cert for a WOF failure here in NZ. They have to be above the minimum thickness and free of cracks to get the green light.

DIY or Workshop?
Difficulty: 6/10
Time Needed: 2-3 hours per axle
Gear You'll Need: Jack and stands (never skip on safety!), wheel wrench, socket set, torque wrench, brake cleaner, fresh brake pads (smart move), and maybe a rotor retaining screwdriver.

🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist
Alright, before you get cracking, a few things to keep in mind. Safety first, always! Never get under a car supported only by a jack – use proper stands. Grab some Nitrile Gloves to keep your hands clean, and Safety Glasses to protect your peepers from brake dust. Speaking of dust, give everything a good blast with Brake Cleaner before you start pulling things apart. And when you're putting it all back together, a dab of anti-seize caliper grease on the right spots will keep things sweet for next time.

Expert Recommendation
Don't muck around with worn-out brake rotors – they're your lifeline! Get them swapped out to keep your Ford Tickford or FPV Falcon stopping like it should. DBA is a solid choice, but we've got options for every budget. Bob at CARFIX is your man, so pop into Bob's Shop, and we'll sort you out with the right gear!

🛠️ Bob's Pro Tip: Do the Job Right!

🧰 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.
