I am SOOOOO HAPPY to see high schools still teach the trades!!!!! Not everyone needs to go to college to make a great living! A great mechanic will NEVER be unemployed!

FYI from AMMCO's website: Note: Either rough or finish cuts may be taken to resurface a rotor. Generally, finish cuts should be 0.004” to 0.006” per side. Very shallow cuts of less than 0.004” per side tend to reduce tool bit life because the heat generated during reconditioning isn’t transferred to the rotor efficiently. Rough cuts may be taken from 0.006” to 0.010” per side.

Also its not called a vibration spacer. Its called a rubber self-aligning spacer. If you have ever seen one of them apart Its a biconvex washer sandwiched between two concave washers. allowing it to move a little bit when tightening the arbor nut up against it. It helps compensate for any unevenness between the cups, spacer and arbor nut.

Never cut just 2 thousandths off. When you take that light of a cut the heat doesnt not transfer to the bits and you will wear your bits out faster. Always cut between 4 to 6 thousandths By the way I have been a certified Ammco Technician for 13 years

I need a certified Ammco Technician to run mine for me, I've had one in my shop hooked up for over 2 years and have never used it. lol Its just that new rotors are pretty cheap these days and I just slap them on. I played with the machine once but didn't know what correct things to use so said meh... now I'm here searching videos to see what is what because I hate the darn thing just sitting around so figured id play with it some more, even if I never really use it. I have never known what to charge anyone if I ever did them for them anyways... when the new ones are elcheapo. I see video's of dudes using them all the time so there must be some money in it though...hmm

What size would you recommend to use for the break lathe adjustment, is it always .02 as you make 2 passes on the surface or does it varies?

WIsh I knew where to find discard thickness for a rotor and drum as not all have them :(

You don't need to do a "non-directional" wire wheel the rotor....

It's hard to find shops now days that will turn rotors,most will tell you,no,but we replace them, well hell I can do that without you charging me!

Danny Mcclure same over here in Canada Ontario...Canadian tire hasn’t cut brake rotors in years and he said it would be about $50 a rotor

there's too many things wrong with this video. I've been cutting rotors for years. I never measure them. I cut them until they are good. I can actually see if a rotor is bad

@smingjr 5 жыл бұрын

Well you still have to measure them, at least in my school

@jaimegaray1976 4 жыл бұрын

I have also worked on cars for years, for various dealerships. If you are not measuring brake rotors after you have removed material from them, you are doing it wrong. I don't get how you can consider having proof that a machined rotor is still within the specified thickness a bad thing. It's required in the dealerships I have worked in to document such information, you cannot have too much information.
