Default How to install Brembo Rotors


Tools Needed
  • *Torque Wrench
    *Socket Wrench
    *10mm Allen Socket
    *Flat Head Screwdriver
    *Philips Head Screwdriver
    *Strap to Hold Caliper

Step 1 – First you want to find a flat spot to jack up the first side of the car you plan on doing. Loosen the lug bolts slightly. Once you lift it to the needed height, make sure to put a jack stand underneath for safety. Remove the lug bolts and pull off the wheel.



Step 2 - Turn the steering wheel to allow you to access the bolts with the 10mm allen socket to remove the caliper. Once the bolts are removed, use the flat head screwdrive to seperate the pads from the rotor and slide the caliper off. Secure the caliper in place with a strap or bungee cord by the coilover.





Step 3 – Next take the philips head screwdriver and remove the screws that hold the rotor to the wheel hub. Pull off the old rotor. Grab the new Brembo rotor which is specific to the left and right. There is no need to clean them.



Step 4 – Put the new Brembo rotor in place and fasten the philips head screws. Grab the caliper and then slide it over the rotor and place the 10mm allen bolts back in place. Use your Torque Wrench and tighten them down to 55lbs each.



Step 5 – Check to make sure your hardware is tight and the rotor spins without any obstructions. Make sure your brakeline is not pinched. Reinstall your wheel on the car. Once you lower the car, torque your wheel bolts to about 90lbs.



Step 6 – Bed in your new rotors by doing 5 hard braking stops from 60-5mph. You should be activating the ABS (if you have one). Once they are bed in, go enjoy your new stopping performance!
