Description

Swapping Out Your Disc Brake Rotors — With RDA
> Disc brake rotors are key to stopping safely. They're the surface your brake pads squeeze against to slow you down. In tough 4x4s like the Nissan Patrol and Ford Maverick, especially if you're hitting the trails or towing, these rotors cop a hammering with heat and wear.

Spotting the Trouble Signs
• Brakes sound like they're grinding or squealing?
• Feel a wobble or thumping in the brake pedal?
• Taking longer to stop than usual?
• See grooves, cracks, or rust on the rotor?
• Brake pads wearing unevenly?

WOF Woes?
Worn brake rotors are a quick way to fail a WOF here in New Zealand. Your rotors need to be above the minimum thickness and without major cracks or scores to pass the test, mate.

DIY or Get a Pro?
Difficulty: 6/10
Time Needed: 2-3 hours per axle
Gear You'll Need: Jack and stands, wheel brace, socket set, torque wrench, brake cleaner, plus new brake pads are a smart move too.

🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist
Before you get cracking on those rotors, safety first, eh? Grab some Brake Cleaner to blast away all that nasty brake dust – it's not something you want to be breathing in. And speaking of hands, a decent set of Nitrile Gloves will keep the grease and grime off your skin.

Don't forget your peepers! A pair of safety glasses is a no-brainer to keep any dust or debris out of your eyes. Lastly, a wee dab of anti-seize caliper grease on the right spots will make the job easier and prevent future headaches. Remember, never get under a vehicle only supported by a jack – use proper stands!

Expert Tip
Worn rotors mean dodgy braking, plain and simple. New ones give you that stopping power back, which is crucial for heavy 4x4s like yours. RDA rotors are a solid pick, but CARFIX has plenty of choices. Bob at CARFIX can sort you out with exactly what you need for your 4x4. Swing by Bob's Shop for a yarn!

A Quick Note on Fitment
Double-check those new rotors match the size and specs of your old ones for your specific Nissan Patrol, Safari, or Ford Maverick. Look out for differences in rotor size, thickness, and where the bolts go.

🧰 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.
