Description

D.I.Y. Disc Brake Rotor Swap — Starring RDA
> Disc brake rotors in your Mitsubishi (Legnum, Diamante, Magna, GTO, or Lancer EVO) are like that cafe lunch you rely on – crucial! They give your brake pads something to really bite into. Give 'em enough stick and they'll bring you to a complete stop. Problem is, all that friction and heat? Over time, they'll wear out, warp, or crack. That's when your braking goes to custard.

Crikey, What's Gone Wrong?
• Brake pedal doing the jitterbug?
• Brakes soundin' like a flock of seagulls?
• Taking longer to pull up at the lights?
• Rotors lookin' like the surface of the moon?
• Brake pads wearin' unevenly?

Will it pass WOF?
Buggered rotors are a dead cert for a WOF failure here in NZ. They gotta be above the minimum thickness and free from cracks to get the tick.

DIY or Workshop?
Difficulty: 6/10
Estimated Time: An hour or two per rotor
Gear You'll Need: Jack, axle stands (never skip these!), lug wrench, socket set, torque wrench, brake cleaner. You might need a caliper tool, too.

🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist
Alright, before you get cracking, let's sort out a few must-haves. First, safety glasses are a no-brainer – keep that brake dust out of your peepers! Grab some heavy-duty nitrile gloves Nitrile Gloves too; brake dust is a bugger to get off your hands. Now, give those new rotors a good blast with Brake Cleaner Brake Cleaner to get rid of any factory gunk. Lastly, a smear of anti-seize caliper grease on the caliper pins will keep things smooth as a baby's bum.

Expert Recommendation
Worn rotors mean your braking's gone to pot – especially crucial in performance cars like the EVO. Slapping in some fresh RDA rotors will get your stopping power back up to scratch. CARFIX has rotors for every budget and driving style. Bob's always here to help you find the perfect fit for your Mitsubishi. Pop into Bob's Shop for a yarn!

Fitment Notes
Double-check those new rotors match your Mitsubishi's original specs. Rotor sizes can vary depending on the model and year.

🧰 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.
