I picked up this EBC front rotor after a stuck caliper condition fried my pads and gouged my rotor up pretty bad.
Here's a few questions:
1) I was wondering if anyone else had had Experience with this rotor, now that it's in hand, it seems much heavier than the stock rotor, is this an issue?
Shouldn't be an issue.
2) Do the holes need to be deburred?
There shouldn't be any raised edges, that will only gouge the pad. Square edges are fine.
3) Do the bolts need to be replaced along with the rotor?
I never have.
4) What kind of thread locker do I need to use?
Blue if anything. The factory sh!t is strong stuff, I'd treat it with pen oil or heat it.
5) I'm planning on putting jack stands under the front foot pegs while the wheel is off -- are they strong enough to support the bike?
400# bike vs 2ton jackstands?
6) any other tips for this job?
If you need anything more than standard allen wrenches, you're about to twist the head off.
Thanks guys, appreciate you
Your welcome.
