Re: Front End Alignment & Brakes



I forgot to include that castor on the Delorean is NOT adjustable. If 
it is out of spec (3-1/2 to 4 degrees positive) then something IS bent 
or broken. There are really only 2 things that are adjustable on the 
Delorean. The front toe-in and the rear thrust angle. If ANY other 
alignment is out of spec something is worn-bent-broken. To find the 
rotor causing the pulsation all you need is a dial indicater and 
micrometer and just check each rotor for parallelism and runout. Some 
venders do not recomend cutting the rotors although many people have 
had it done successfully. If you do cut or replace the rotors then it 
is recomended that you replace the brake pads. Always replace in sets 
ie: both fronts or both rears, never just on 1 side.
