Rotors are loose


Recommended Posts

Posted

So my rotors are loose on my truck and I am not sure what to do. Do I get the turned at an auto parts store of just replace them? What is the best option to all who know about this?

they can't be loose, your lug nuts hold them to to the bearing hub. if shaking in brakes they may be warped or you have a suspension component going

Loose rotors ????

If you can wobble the rotors my guess is your hub bearings are shot.

Did you notice and bearing noise while driving ????

The rotors are only held on with friction washers when the wheel is off...they are held in place with the wheel and lugnuts.

When I hit the brakes, the truck shakes but if I go down on my brakes hard then it shakes a little then stops. I do not know what a bearing noise sounds like so.....

See post #2 above.

 

Have the rotors turned IF they are still within specs, replace if they are not.

Check for worn front end parts, replace as needed.

Those washers/clips can be removed and thrown away when you do brakes- they're just installed at the factory to keep the rotor in place until the rest of the system is assembled.

You have warped rotors. They might be able to be machined. Otherwise, they'll need to be replaced.
