Swapping Out Your Disc Brake Rotors — With Help From RDA
> Your Mitsubishi Montero, Pajero, Challenger, Delica, or Pajero Sport relies on its disc brake rotors to give the brake pads something to really bite into, slowing you down proper. These rotors can take a beating and end up warped, cracked, or just plain worn out, especially if you're hitting those tough off-road tracks or doing a lot of heavy braking.
What Clued You In?
• Brakes screaching like a banshee?
• Feeling a judder through the brake pedal?
• Taking longer than usual to pull up?
• Rotors looking worse for wear with scoring, rust, or cracks?
• Brake pads wearing unevenly?
Will it pass WOF?
Mate, dodgy brake rotors are a surefire way to fail a WOF here in NZ. They need to be above the minimum thickness and free from any major damage to get the tick of approval.
DIY or Workshop?
Difficulty: 6/10
Estimated Time: 1-2 hours per rotor
Tools Required: Jack and stands, wheel wrench, socket set, torque wrench, brake cleaner, replacement brake pads (highly recommended).
