Product Details and Specifications

The DuraGo BR53001-01 rotor features a conventional, vented design that enhances heat dissipation during braking, helping to prevent overheating and brake fade. Its full cast iron construction ensures durability and consistent performance over time. The rotor measures 11.34 inches (288.1 mm) in outside diameter and has a nominal thickness of 1.1 inches (28 mm), with a discard thickness of 1.02 inches (26 mm), indicating when replacement is necessary. The rust-resistant coating helps protect the rotor surface from corrosion, which is especially beneficial in humid or wet environments. This rotor includes five mounting bolt holes with a 4.5-inch (114.3 mm) bolt circle diameter and a center hole diameter of 2.84 inches (72.1 mm), designed specifically for Jeep Liberty brake systems. The non-directional brake surface allows for flexible installation without concern for rotor orientation.

Compatible Applications and Common Issues Addressed

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors on Jeep Liberty vehicles
• Resolves brake pulsation caused by uneven rotor surfaces
• Addresses excessive brake noise due to rotor wear or corrosion
• Improves braking performance by restoring proper rotor thickness
• Prevents brake fade through vented rotor design for better heat management

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the rotor surface is clean and free of debris before installation. Verify that the rotor thickness meets the minimum discard thickness specification of 1.02 inches (26 mm) to maintain safe braking performance. Use proper torque specifications for the five mounting bolts to avoid rotor warping. Since this rotor has a non-directional surface, it can be installed on either side without affecting performance. It is recommended to inspect brake pads and hardware during rotor replacement to ensure optimal braking system function.
