FRONT BRAKE DISC THICKNESS CHECK1. Using a caliper, measure nominal disc thickness at eight positions, approximately 45° apart and 10 mm (0.39 inch) from the outer edge of the disc.
Brake disc thickness
Standard value: 26 mm (1.02 inch)
Limit: 24.4 mm (0.96 inch)
Thickness variation (at least 8 positions)
2. Wherever you measure the thickness value use a micrometer. The pad must be less than 0.005 mm in the direction of the circumference and less than 0.05 mm in the direction of radius.
3. If the disc is beyond the limits for thickness or unevenness remove it and install a new one.
FRONT BRAKE DISC RUN-OUT CHECK
1. Remove the caliper support, then raise the caliper assembly upward and suspend with wire.
NOTE: Tighten the nuts in order to mount the disc to the hub.
2. Place a dial gauge about 5 mm (0.2 inch) from the outer circumference of the brake disc, and measure the runout of the disc.
Limit: 0.04 mm (0.0016 inch)
FRONT BRAKE DISC RUN OUT CORRECTION
1. If the run out of the brake disc is equivalent to or exceeds the limit specification, replace the disc and hub, and then measure the run out again.
1) Before removing the brake disc, chalk both sides of the wheel stud on the side at which the run out is greatest.
2) Remove the brake disc, and then place a dial gauge as shown in the illustration; then move the hub in the axial direction and measure the run out.
Limit: 0.05 mm (0.0020 inch)
If it is equivalent to or exceeds the limit, disassemble the hub knuckle and check each part.
3) If the play does not exceed the limit specification, install the brake disc after turning it 180° from the chalk mark, and then check the run out of the brake disc again.
2. If the run out cannot be corrected by changing the position of the brake disc, replace the brake disc.
