Description

Swapping Out Your Disc Brake Rotors — With RDA
> Your Nissan 720 or Datsun's disc brake rotors are dead important. They wear down over time from all that heat and friction, and that can make it harder to stop, especially when you're loaded up or pushing it on the open road.
What Clued You In?
• Brakes making a racket? Squealing or grinding?
• Feeling a wobble or pulsing when you hit the brakes?
• Taking longer to pull up than usual?
• Rotors looking rough? Scored, cracked, or rusty?
WOF Woes?
Dodgy brake rotors are a quick way to fail your WOF here in NZ. They've gotta be thick enough and free from major damage to pass the test.
DIY or Get a Pro?
Difficulty: 6/10

What You'll Need: Jack and stands, wheel wrench, socket set, torque wrench, brake cleaner... maybe a caliper tool too.

🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist
Before you get cracking on those brakes, mate, a few things to keep in mind. Safety first, yeah? Never get under a car that's only held up by a jack. Get some proper stands. Grab some Nitrile Gloves to keep the hands clean(ish). And definitely give everything a good blast with some Brake Cleaner to get rid of all that brake dust – nasty stuff! A bit of Caliper Grease on the right spots will keep things smooth, and don't forget your Safety Glasses. Trust me, you'll thank me later.
Fitment Notes
Make sure those new rotors are the right fit for your specific Nissan 720 or Datsun year and model. Rotor sizes and thickness can vary, so double-check!

• 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.
