Brake Rotor/Disc: Service and Repair
Refinishing Brake Rotors

^

Tool Required:
-

J 37704 On-Vehicle Brake Lathe

NOTICE:  All new rotors must have the protective coating removed from the friction surfaces before being placed in service. Use Goodwrench Brake
Parts Cleaner, or equivalent, and wipe the surface clean with clean cloths. Use of unapproved cleaners may leave an oily residue that is damaging to 
brake pads.

In the cases where rotors are being refinished to correct a problem with brake pulsation, it is recommended that an on-vehicle brake lathe be used to
achieve best results. Follow the equipment manufacturer's recommended specifications and procedure.
