Default Re: AUII Wagon Rotors - Anything special?

Cam,

I've got RDA slotted on the front and rear, with QFM pads and it's been great for years.

Even when I had my front pads replaced (after many years) the rotors were still great and didn't even need machining.

That's the combo I'd gladly go with again.

With regards to the leaf rear end, it's not a problem. You may find that the biggest problem is getting the rear discs off. Many have had to belt the life out of them to get them off.

I guess they stay on for a lot longer than the fronts generally and so rust becomes more of an issue. Just really drown them in WD40 or the like and let it really soak in, before attempting to hammer them off.

All the best with it.
