Description

Disc Brake Rotor Swap-Out: The RDA Way
> Disc brake rotors are a key piece of your Mitsubishi Pajero or Montero's stopping puzzle. Over time, they cop a beating from friction and heat, especially if you're hitting the trails or slamming on the brakes often. This wear means less stopping power and can get you into a sticky situation.
Naughty Noises and Other Tell-tale Signs
• Brakes sound like a flock of seagulls or a rusty gate?
• Pedal's got the shakes when you brake?
• Taking longer to pull up than you'd like?
• Rotors look like they've seen better days – scoring, rust, the works?
• Brake pads wearing unevenly?
WOF Woes?
Worn-out brake rotors are a quick way to fail a WOF here in NZ. Rotors need to be up to thickness and free from major damage to pass the test.
DIY or Get a Pro?
Difficulty: 6/10 (tricky, but doable with the right gear)
Time Needed: 2-3 hours per axle
Gear You'll Need: Jack and stands (never skimp on safety!), wrench set, socket set, torque wrench (critical!), brake cleaner Brake Cleaner, wheel chocks, gloves Nitrile Gloves, and safety glasses.

Dodgy brake rotors are a recipe for disaster, especially on a 4WD like your Pajero or Montero that might see some tough love. Swapping them out keeps you safe and sound. Bob's always here to help you nail the right part for your Mitsubishi. Pop into Bob's Shop for a yarn!
🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist
Before you dive in, mate, a quick safety and supplies check will save you a world of pain:
• Safety First, Always: Never, ever get under a vehicle that's only held up by a jack. Use proper stands – your life's worth it!
• Keep it Clean: Brake dust is nasty stuff. Give those rotors a good blast with Brake Cleaner before you start pulling things apart. Also, wear safety glasses and Nitrile Gloves!
• Protect Against Seizing: Smear a little anti-seize caliper grease on the back of the brake pads where they contact the caliper pistons. This helps prevent noise and ensures smooth operation.
Fitment Notes
Double-check that these rotors are the right fit for your specific Mitsubishi Pajero or Montero, year and all. Some models have different rotor sizes or setups. Always do both sides of the axle at the same time to keep things even-stevens.

Bob @ CARFIX always says: "Do the job right the first time, and you'll be sorted for years to come!"

🧰 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.
