Q: What is the removal procedure for the brake rotor?
A:
You need to siphon two-thirds of the fluid from the master cylinder reservoir, raise and support the vehicle, remove the tire and wheel assembly, position the C-clamp around the outer pad and caliper, remove the brake pads and the caliper from the caliper carrier, remove the brake caliper bracket, the two rotor screws, the rotor from the wheel hub.
Q: What should we do after the linings have been replaced and/or the rotors have been refinished?
A:
You should break in or burnish the new braking surface. This can be accomplished by making 20 stops from 48 km/h (30 mph), using medium to firm brake pedal pressure. Do not overheat the brakes.
