I took the rear brake caliper off today to look at the pads and clean things out.
First question is that one pad was significantly more worn than the other; maybe 1-2 quarters thickness worth. I can’t remember the order of the pads, but will the pad resting on the piston wear quicker than the other, or does this indicate a problem?
When I cleaned the front brakes I put copper grease directly on the back of the pad but the rear pads have shims; should I grease the back of the shims?
I measured the rear rotor thickness and it was .183”. The service manual says .18” max and replace, does anyone know the thickness of new stock rotors? I dont know how worn these guys are exactly.
Thanks!
