Disc Brakes -> Rear Disc Brakes & Parking Brakes -> Troubleshooting -> BRAKE ROUGHNESS
Vehicle: 1993 Ford Taurus GL 3.8 V6 GAS

BRAKE ROUGHNESS

The most common cause of brake chatter on disc brakes is a variation in thickness of the disc. If roughness or vibration is encountered during highway operation or if pedal pumping is experienced at low speeds, the disc may have excessive thickness variation. To check for this condition, measure the disc at 12 points with a micrometer at a radius approximately one inch from the edge of the disc. If thickness measurements vary by more t...

Hydraulic Brake Systems -> HYDRAULIC TUBING -> DOUBLE FLARE/INVERTED SEAT
Vehicle: 1993 Ford Taurus SHO 3.2 V6 GAS

Never use copper tubing as a replacement for steel tubing. Copper tubing is subject to fatigue cracking and corrosion which could result in brake system failure.

Steel tubing is used to conduct hydraulic pressure to the brakes. All fittings, tubing and hose should be inspected for rusted, damaged or defective flared seats. The tubing is equipped with a double flare/inverted seat or I.S.O. flare to insure more positive seating in the fitting. To repair or reflare tubing, proceed as follows:

DOUBLE FLARE/INVERTED SEAT
  • Cut off the damaged seat or damaged tubing.
  • Ream out any burrs or ...

This is necessary to avoid pulls and erratic performance and promote long lining life and equal lining wear of both the left and right brakes.

Do not attempt to refinish the rubbing surfaces unless precision equipment...
