Description

Slapping on New Disc Brake Rotors — with RDA
> Your Ford Falcon or Fairlane's disc brake rotors are crucial for safe stopping. Over time, they cop a beating from friction, heat, and road grit, which means your braking can suffer, especially on older cars. Time for a change, mate?

Spotting the Warning Signs
• Nasty grinding or squealing when you hit the brakes.
• Your whole car shakes or pulses when you brake.
• Taking way longer to stop than it used to.
• Rotors are scored, cracked, or rusty as all get-out.
• Your brake pads are wearing unevenly.

Will it pass WOF?
Worn or rooted disc brake rotors are a surefire way to fail a WOF here in New Zealand. Rotors need to be above the minimum thickness and free from major damage to pass the test.

DIY or Workshop?
Difficulty: 6/10
Estimated Time: 2-3 hours per axle
Tools Required: Jack and stands, wheel wrench, socket set, torque wrench, brake cleaner, replacement brake pads (highly recommended).

Alright, before you get cracking on those brakes, let's make sure you're all set. Safety first, always! And a clean workspace makes for a happy mechanic.
• Safety Glasses: No one wants a face full of brake dust. Grab a pair of Safety Glasses to protect your peepers.
• Nitrile Gloves: Brake fluid and grime are no good for your skin. Keep your hands clean with some Nitrile Gloves.
• Brake Cleaner: Blast away all that nasty brake dust and grime before you start pulling things apart. Makes the job cleaner and easier. Brake Cleaner is your best mate here.
• Caliper Grease: A little dab of anti-seize caliper grease on the right spots will keep everything moving smoothly and prevent squealing. Don't skip this step!
