Pathfinder LE 4WD V6-3.3L (VG33E) (1997)
Brake Rotor/Disc: Testing and Inspection
RUNOUT
1. Secure rotor to wheel hub with at least 2 nuts (M12 x 1.25).
2. Ensure that no wheel bearing axial end play exists and check runout using a dial indicator. Maximum runout is 0.1 mm (0.004 inches).
3. If the runout is out of specification, find minimum runout position as follows:
a. Remove nuts and rotor from wheel hub.
b. Shift the rotor one hole and secure rotor to wheel hub with nuts.
c. Measure runout.
d. Repeat steps a through c so that minimum runout position can be found.
4. If the runout is still out of specification, turn rotor with on-car brake lathe (MAD, DL-8700, AMMCO 700 and 705, or equivalent).
THICKNESS
^
Maximum thickness variation measured from at least 8 positions is 0.015 mm (0.0006 inches).
^
If thickness variation exceeds the specification, machine rotor with on-car brake lathe.
^
The rotor repair limit is 26.0 mm (1.024 inches).
