Detailed Product Description

The DuraGo BR54017 disc brake rotor is engineered with full cast construction using high-quality cast iron, ensuring strength and effective heat management during braking. This solid rotor features a nominal thickness of 0.55 inches (14 mm) and an outside diameter of 10.51 inches (267 mm), matching the specifications required for Ford Mustang brake systems. The rotor includes five mounting bolt holes arranged on a 114.3 mm bolt circle diameter, with each hole measuring 0.58 inches (14.8 mm) in diameter, allowing for secure and precise installation.

Designed without cross-drilling or slotting, this rotor offers a smooth, non-directional braking surface that supports consistent pad contact and wear. The overall height of 1.97 inches (50 mm) and center hole diameter of 2.79 inches (70.8 mm) ensure proper fitment and alignment with the vehicle’s hub assembly. This conventional rotor type is compatible with standard Ford Mustang brake setups that do not require ABS tone rings or specialized rotor designs.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or warped rotors causing brake pulsation
• Addressing reduced braking efficiency due to rotor thickness below discard limits
• Resolving noise or vibration issues linked to uneven rotor surfaces
• Upgrading to a reliable rotor for consistent stopping power on Ford Mustang models
• Ensuring proper rotor fitment for vehicles requiring 5-bolt mounting patterns

Installation Notes and Tips

• Verify rotor thickness before installation; discard thickness is 0.5 inches (12.8 mm)
• Ensure mounting surfaces are clean and free of debris for proper rotor seating
• Torque mounting bolts to manufacturer specifications to avoid rotor warping
• Check compatibility with brake pads and calipers specific to Ford Mustang models
• Inspect hub assembly for damage or corrosion prior to installation
