Inspection
Excessive runout or wobble in a rotor can increase pedal travel due to piston knock-back. This increases guide pin
sleeve wear due to the tendency of the caliper to follow the rotor wobble.
Braking Surface Inspection
Light braking surface scoring and wear is acceptable. If heavy scoring or warping is evident, the rotor must be resur-
faced or replaced. Excessive wear and scoring of the rotor can cause improper lining contact on the rotor’s braking
surface. If the ridges on the rotor are not removed before new brake pads are installed, improper wear of the shoes
will result. Some discoloration or wear of the rotor surface is normal and does not require resurfacing when linings
are replaced. If cracks or burned spots are evident, the rotor must be replaced.
