After pulling my wheels to see if I could figure out what is making my brakes squeak so badly, I discovered that one of the rotors needed turning. I took it to NAPA, they said there was enough there

I'm a little unclear about this "half inch spot" you refer to. Is this roughly 1/2" diameter, and how much below minimum is it? And where is it on the rotor, near the outer or inner radius? Had they

To All on Brakes, Many years back I went to Midas to have pads installed and rotors turned on my Volvo. I was told that turning the rotor would put it below the recommended thickness for safety. Ther

Interesting story and illustrates the point. It might be good for Bruiser to check the thickness of his turned rotors. I think that the Sunbeam manual says not to turn them below 0.460", so you shou

Well Ramon, Where did they brake (break) ? Could some poor machining techniques have caused stress risers at the fracture point ? Bruce M.

You are right, it would be wrong to leave the hubs torqued to 14 lbs. According to the official Rootes Manual, first tighten hub nut to torque reading of 15-20 lb-ft while spinning the wheel, then b
