Removing the Brakes: Step 19 – Inspecting the Rotors [Project Miata: Removing the Brakes]

Removing the Brakes: Step 19 - Inspecting the Rotors

As you can see you’ll need to let the Liquid Wrench soak for a good long while. In our case several hours. Once the rotors are off, look for any grooving or uneven wear patterns. If you find any of the above or if your rotors are warped, you’ll either want to have your rotors turned or in the case of the Miata, get new ones since it’s cheaper than having them turned.

That’s it. The calipers and rotors have been removed and cleaned up and they’re ready for painting and reinstallation. Care to hazard a guess what the next installment will be? ;)
