Description

Swapping Out Your Disc Brake Rotors — DBA Featured
> Your Toyota Land Cruiser Prado's disc brake rotors are vital. These wear down over time because of friction and heat, especially if you're tackling tough conditions off-road or doing lots of stop-start driving. Dodgy rotors mean dodgy braking and less safety.
Spotting the Trouble
• Brake pedal's got the shakes or vibrates
• Brakes are squealing like a pig or grinding
• Taking way longer to stop than it used to
• Can see scoring or cracks on the rotor
• Brake pads are wearing unevenly
WOF Woes?
Worn brake rotors are a common reason for failing a WOF here in New Zealand. Rotors need to be thick enough and free from cracks to pass the test.
DIY or Get a Pro?
Difficulty: 6/10
Time Needed: 1-2 hours per rotor
Gear You'll Need: Jack and stands, wheel wrench, socket set, torque wrench, brake cleaner, new brake pads (good idea to replace these too).
🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist
Before you get cracking on those rotors, mate, a little prep goes a long way to keep things safe and tidy. Trust me, a cafe lunch tastes better when you haven't been wrestling brake dust all morning.
• Safety First, Mates! Never, ever get under your Land Cruiser Prado supported only by a jack. Use proper axle stands. And chuck on some Safety Glasses to keep the brake dust out of your peepers and Nitrile Gloves to protect your hands from the grime.
• Brake Cleaner is Your Best Mate: Give those new rotors a good blast with Brake Cleaner to get rid of any factory protectant.
• Copper Anti-Seize on the Back: A smear of Anti-Seize Compound on the back of the brake pads where they contact the caliper piston will help prevent any future squealing.

Expert's Two Cents
Worn brake rotors seriously cut down your braking power, which is super risky, especially in a big rig like the Land Cruiser Prado. Swapping out your rotors makes sure you can stop safely, whether you're towing a boat or hitting the trails. The DBA rotor (DBA4793S) is a top choice for better performance and it'll last. CARFIX has got heaps of brake rotors from brands you trust. Bob @ CARFIX is always keen to help you figure out just which part you need for your Land Cruiser Prado. Pop over to Bob's Shop for a yarn!
Fitment Notes
Double-check that it fits your Land Cruiser Prado's year and model. Some models might have different sized rotors. Also, make sure it's sweet with your ABS.
