  • it depends on the material it is made of. Some rotors can not be resurfaced.

  • Sorry to hear that. After performing a brake job you should drive the car and et the brake pads before any aggressive driving/braking

  • your are chattering the rotors because you have no dampner on tje rotor

  • Only if the cuts were deep. we cut rotors 0.012 of a mm at a time. this may take long , but you will get a smooth cut

  • wheres the chatter belt?

  • @frozzenwater im a professional machineist and ive done 100 disks ..Everything can be machined, you just need the right cutting knives. If you get a chance someday go take a look at a CNC or manual machine how its done...He probably charge you a beer or two..A car shop like this will charge your over 100 bucks-

  • could you reservice drilled rotors??? HELP

  • .0005" at a time really would take a longtime! They must look like a mirror! Must take alot of patience to make 100 passes just to remove 1mm. I had to take off 1/32 from each side- That would have taken about 75 passes on each side. Do you have a CNC setup? 8 hours+ is alot of time for 1 rotor might be cheaper to buy new(unless labor is super cheap)

  • We cut the two front rotors on this car today in my Auto Class. The machine, similar to this one, left them soft and nice. Unfortunately, my friend went out for a spin to test his brakes and he couldn't grasp a turn and ruined his whole axle , lca, and wheel...lol. What a day!
