Brakes? was created by dumb_dom



Hey guys so over recently bought a new jimny and while checking it over after owning it for a few months I've noticed the front disk is half getting rust, kind like the bottom half of the pad isn't touching during braking, also when spinning the front wheel while raised in the air you can hear them slightly skimming/catching the rotar..any ideas?

Looks to be a grey area.....all over the image! :D

If you can get the rust off try some new pads.....not saying to put sandpaper between the new pad and disc to remove the rust as you'd need to remember to remove it before hitting the highway......discs are pretty cheap as it happens....make sure the calliper slides freely.

I don't think I'd even fit plane paper between the pad and disk the gap is that tight, I was thinking it could be seized guid pin or not %100 functional ones at least, I'm not that hands on when it comes to brakes it the only thing I don't tend to tinker with myself as if you bugger it up it can be dangerous

As for the image I have. O idea why it's dooing that, I've tried editing and re-uploading but it's the same

Try using Photobucket or similar, it sizes them correctly for posting...
