Ensure that the measurements are only taken within the friction surfaces and that the 4. Compare the lowest thickness measurement recorded to the following specifications: Specification - Front Rotor JD9/JH6/JH7: Brake rotor minimum allowable thickness after refinishing 37.0 mm (1.457 in) Brake rotor discard thickness 36.50 mm (1.437 in) Specification - Front Rotor JF3/JF7: Brake rotor minimum allowable thickness after refinishing 28.0 mm (1.10 in) Brake rotor discard thickness 28.0 mm (1.10 in) Specification - Rear Rotor JD9: Brake rotor minimum allowable thickness after refinishing 18.5 mm (0.728 in) Brake rotor discard thickness 18.0 mm (0.709 in) Specification - Rear Rotor JH6: Brake rotor minimum allowable thickness after refinishing 28.0 mm (1.102 in) Brake rotor discard thickness 27.50 mm (1.083 in) Specification - Rear Rotor JH7: Brake rotor minimum allowable thickness after refinishing 29.0 mm (1.142 in) Brake rotor discard thickness 28.50 mm (1.122 in) 5. If the lowest thickness measurement of the brake rotor is above the minimum allowable thickness after refinishing specification, the rotor may be able to be refinished, depending 6. If the lowest thickness measurement of the brake rotor is at or below the minimum allowable thickness after refinishing specification, the rotor may not be refinished. 7. If the lowest thickness measurement of the brake rotor is at or below the discard thickness specification, the rotor requires replacement. BRAKE ROTOR THICKNESS VARIATION MEASUREMENT CAUTION: Refer to Brake Dust Caution .

1. If the inboard friction surface of the brake rotor is not accessible, reposition and support the caliper with the brake pads. Refer to Front Disc Brake Pads Replacement (JH6, JH7) or 2. Clean the friction surfaces of the brake rotor with denatured alcohol, or an equivalent approved brake cleaner. IMPORTANT: Any disc brake rotor that exhibits thickness variation exceeding the maximum acceptable level must be refinished or replaced.
