Re: DIY Brake Rotor Work what is needed?

Go spend some time in a local hospital and see the results of when people tackle a job they have zero clue about. Checking the basics on your car isn't that tough. I replaced my brake parts when either it needs it cos it's stuffed or if I'm upgrading aka installed RA rotor/ calipers on the Front. On...

Re: DIY Brake Rotor Work what is needed?

Re: DIY Brake Rotor Work what is needed?

How come you have zero clue about the service history of you car? Where is the service log book that usually lives in the glove box? Why are you not inspecting your own brake pads? Brakes have to be the number one priority on any vehicle. Tyres would have to be number two priority. No brakes on your...

Re: DIY Brake Rotor Work what is needed?

On the lancer the rear brake is controlled by the handbrake. The lancer rear brake pads will most definitely not last the life time of the car at all. You will be very hard pressed to find any vehicle where that is actually true. I changed my rear pads on my lacer with 100,000 Kay's on the clock wit...

I was just saying the hand brake if not used to slow the car therefor there is usually no friction that causes ware, its why they often last the life of the car.

What lasts the life of the car?
The rear brake pads or the handbrake , or the handbrake cable?

The front brakes to the majority of the stopping work. Same as a motorcycle. However when the front and rear are used in combination the stopping power is dramatically improved
