Subaru forrester brake rotor thickness

Each brake rotor has the minimum thickness marked on the rotor. Keep in mind also that the comparative thickness of each side of a vented rotor must be considered. Even if the overall thickness is greater than the minimum, each side must be within .040" (1mm) of the other.

Discard Thickness30.7 mm (1.209 in.)
Lateral Runout (New)0.06 mm (0.002 in.)
Minimum Thickness after Refinish31.08 mm (1.224 in.)
Rotor Diameter 15 inch Wheels (New)278.0 mm (10.9 in.)

Rotor Thickness (New)32.20 mm (1.267 in.)
Thickness Variation (New)0.025 mm (0.001 in.)

I don't know the min thickness, but I have an outback just like yours and if there is a problem with uneven rotors it's usually cheaper and easier to buy aftermarket at NAPA auto or other supplier (shop around) and trash the old rotors. If the rotors can be turned then keep them for the next brake job and use them then. Outbacks are easy to do about 30 min a side rotor and pads after the wheel is off, just did mine.

Front Rotors need to be turned or replaced. Good Luck!!!

If it makes noise, it's not the fuse. Most likely the discharge nozzles are stopped up. Try blowing compressed air into them from the outside.

They will need replacing when they are at the minimum thickness, which is stamped on the rotor in most cases. If they are rusted, they will need replacement anyhow. you may just call a few repair shops and ask for a quote on pads and rotors. Asking a quote for brakes is hard, because they dont have the car to inspect it, and its hard because nobody quotes the same parts, apples to apples. the cheapest is not the best deal, you get what you pay for. Get good quality brakes, your life depends on it. if it was me I would use dealer parts.

Assuming you are not referring to the pulsation experienced when the anti-lock braking system engages, you should replace the rotors and the pads while you are at it. The days of turning or resurfacing rotors are over. They are cheap.

there is many kind of brake system of ur truck here i will send u everything about the brake and i hope its help

* All brake rotors have a discard dimension cast into them. Replace any rotor that does not meet this Specification. After refinishing the rotor, replace any rotor that does not meet the minimum or discard thickness specifications.
