Front Brake Disc: Inspection
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Ford Ranger, 2003 Ford Ranger, and 2002 Ford Ranger. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
DO NOT use a bench lathe to machine brake discs. Use On-Car Brake Lathe (201-00002), or equivalent.
NOTE:
Lateral runout and disc thickness variation measurements are not required because correct adjustment of the on-vehicle brake lathe will ensure that these dimensions are within specification.
On all models, inspect and thoroughly clean front wheel bearings, hub and rotor. Apply grease and pack front wheel bearings. Measure the brake disc thickness and resurface as necessary. See DISC & DRUM BRAKE SPECIFICATIONS .
