Front and Rear Brake Rotors NOTICE 1. Always follow the brake lathe manufacturer’s recommendations for proper machining. It is recommended to use an “on-car” brake lathe. For more information on brake rotor service, refer to the applicable vehicle shop manual. Measure rotor thickness BEFORE and AFTER machining to ensure the brake rotor is within specification. Refer to the applicable vehicle shop manual for minimum thickness. When measuring the brake rotor for minimum service thickness and runout, remove all surface contamination and corrosion to ensure an accurate measurement. Measure the thickness at 8 points (every 45 degrees) around the rotor, 5-10mm or 0.2-0.4” inboard of the outer edge. Record these measurements on the repair order sheet. Measurement locations around rotor 2. After machining, re-install the rotor (if removed) and caliper. Then, inspect the rotor runout. Refer to the applicable vehicle shop manual for recommended runout tolerance. Mount a dial indicator on the brake rotor 5-10mm or 0.2-0.4” inboard of the outer edge. Record this measurement on the repair order sheet. 3. Verify that the rotor is free of grease or other contamination. Clean with brake cleaner if necessary. 4. When re-installing the wheels, tighten the lug nuts in a star pattern to the torque specification in the appropriate vehicle shop manual. This reduces runout from occurring. 5. Tighten all bolts to the torque specification recommended in the appropriate vehicle shop manual. 6. After installing the machined rotors or installing new rotors, perform a brake burnishing procedure. 1. Drive the vehicle and accelerate to 50 mph. Apply the brakes using moderate force (about 0.3g deceleration rate), and slow the vehicle to 10 mph. This action will take approximately 6 seconds. 2. With as little cooling time as possible, repeat this braking event 10 times. TSB #: 21-BR-002H Page 3 of 19 SUBJECT: BRAKE SERVICE BEST PRACTICE RECOMMENDATIONS SUBJECT: Front Brake Calipers/Pads: FLOATING TYPE ONLY NOTICE 1. For more information regarding brake caliper and pad service, refer to the applicable vehicle shop manual. When performing the brake service on floating type calipers, always remove, clean, and inspect the caliper slide pins and boots. Apply Silicone Paste, P/N 00232-19087 to the caliper slide pins before reinstallation. NOTICE This procedure does not apply to fixed-type calipers. Use caliper slide pin recommended lubricant. Do not over-lubricate the slide pins. If too much lubricant is applied to the slide pins, air can be trapped at the end of the pin creating an “air spring”. This condition causes the caliper/pad assembly to drag on the rotor. ! ! CAUTION Do not hang the caliper with the brake hose. 2. Remove the pads, and clean the pad backing plate and insulators/shims of debris. Never reuse shims on new pads. Inspect the pad friction surface for even wear and pad thickness. Refer to the applicable vehicle shop manual for service limits. Grease should not be applied to the pad backing plate unless instructed by the shop manual or TSB(s), as it could trap debris, and increase the chance of noise or dragging. TSB #: 21-BR-002H Page 4 of 19 SUBJECT: SUBJECT: 3. BRAKE SERVICE BEST PRACTICE RECOMMENDATIONS Remove the pad retainers, and clean the contact surface of the caliper from debris and corrosion. Use a wire brush if necessary. Apply a light coat of Copper Anti-Seize Brake Lube, P/N 00232-19086, (A) to prevent further corrosion. Clean and inspect the retainers if the pads are reused. Discard damaged retainers. Always use the retainers included with the new pads. A 4. Inspect the caliper for brake fluid leaks. Follow the Brake Caliper Fluid Inspection procedure on page 18.
