Description

Swapping Out Your Disc Brake Rotors — TRW Style
> Disc brake rotors are what stops your car, plain and simple. Over time, they get thin, warped, or develop grooves from all the heat and friction. Especially if you're giving it the beans in something like a Falcon GT or hauling a decent load.
Recognise Any of These Symptoms?
• Feel a judder or pulsing through the brake pedal or steering wheel when you brake?
• Hear a squeal, grind, or scrape when you hit the brakes?
• Taking longer to stop, or the pedal feels a bit soft?
• See grooves, scoring, or funny colours on the rotor itself?
Will it pass WOF?
Nah mate, rooted brake rotors are a WOF failure. They need to be a certain thickness and in good nick to pull you up safely.
DIY or Get a Pro?
Difficulty: 6/10 (A good challenge)
Time Needed: An hour or two per side
Gear You'll Need: Jack, stands, wheel wrench, socket set, brake piston tool, torque wrench, wire brush, brake cleaner, safety glasses, gloves.
🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist
Before you even think about cracking those wheel nuts, let's talk safety. Never, ever get under a car that's only held up by a jack – use proper stands! Grab some safety glasses too; you don't want any brake dust or rust in your eyes. And speaking of brake dust, it's nasty stuff, so get yourself some nitrile gloves to keep your hands clean. While you're at it, a can of brake cleaner is your best mate for blasting away all that grime. Smear some anti-seize caliper grease on the bolts to ensure smooth disassembly and prevent seizing. It's cheap insurance for future maintenance.
Expert Recommendation
Bob from CARFIX reckons you should always replace rotors when they're showing wear or damage. It's about keeping your braking top-notch and staying safe. The TRW DF7020XSS rotor is a solid bit of kit, giving you consistent stopping power for your Falcon or Fairlane. Call into Bob's Shop and we can sort you out with the right parts for your Ford.
Fitment Notes
This TRW rotor fits a bunch of Ford models, including the Fairmont MPFI (1996-1998), Falcon GT (1996-1998), Fairlane EFI V8 (1995-1996), and LTD MPFI (1996-1999). Always double-check the specs and dimensions, especially on the performance models, to make sure it's the right fit and will pull you up properly.

🛠️ Bob's Pro Tip: Do the Job Right!
> If you're swapping out these parts on your vehicle, always install fresh brake pads. Check out our compatible TRW Brake Pads (Part No. GDB3135) to ensure a perfect bed-in and get the job done properly first time!

🧰 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.
