Description

Swapping Out Your Disc Brake Rotors — Featuring RDA
> Disc brake rotors are dead important in your Holden's braking setup. They're what the brake pads clamp onto to bring you to a halt. Over time, especially in older beasts like the Monaro and Caprice that have seen a few tough conditions, these rotors can wear down, warp, or even crack.

Telltale Signs You've Got Rotor Issues
• Your brake pedal's got the shakes or a proper vibration
• Squealing or grinding like you're down the dusty metal tracks
• Taking way longer to pull up than it used to
• Can see cracks or damage when you peek through the spokes
• Your brake pads are wearing unevenly

Will it pass WOF?
Worn or dodgy disc brake rotors are a dead cert for WOF failures here in New Zealand. Rotors need to be within the minimum thickness and no cracks or anything nasty to pass the test.

DIY or Workshop?
Difficulty: 6/10
Estimated Time: 1-2 hours per rotor
Tools Required: Jack, axle stands, wheel brace, socket set, torque wrench, brake cleaner, and maybe a brake caliper tool.

🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist
Before you crack into this job, grab these essentials to make it a smooth, safe, and tidy operation:
• Safety First, Mates! Never, ever get under a car supported only by a jack. Use proper axle stands. And chuck on some Safety Glasses to keep the brake dust out of your peepers.
• Keep it Clean: Brake dust is nasty stuff. Grab a can of Brake Cleaner to blast it off the calipers and new rotors before you fit everything up. Trust me, your lungs will thank you.
• Glove Up: Protect your hands from the grime with some heavy-duty Nitrile Gloves. Makes cleanup a breeze.
• Lube It Right: A wee smear of anti-seize caliper grease on the caliper pins will keep everything sliding smoothly and prevent future squeaks.

Expert Recommendation
Swapping out your disc brake rotors is a no-brainer for keeping your classic Holden stopping safely. Bob @ CARFIX is always on hand to help you work out exactly what part you need for your Holden. Make sure you head over to Bob's Shop for a chat!

Fitment Notes
Double-check the new rotors are the right fit for your specific Holden model and year. Some might have different sizes or setups. Make sure it's all good before you start bolting things on.

🧰 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.
