Its vented design allows air to flow between the rotor faces, enhancing heat dissipation during braking and reducing the risk of brake fade. The rotor measures 12.01 inches in outside diameter and 2.6 inches in overall height, ensuring compatibility with the specified vehicle models. The mounting bolt hole pattern includes five holes spaced on a 4.5-inch bolt circle diameter, with each hole measuring 0.65 inches in diameter. This rotor does not include an ABS tone ring and features a non-directional braking surface, allowing for flexible installation orientation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatible Vehicles and Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis disc brake rotor is compatible with the following vehicles:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFord B4000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFord Explorer Sport\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFord Explorer Sport Trac\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFord Ranger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMazda models sharing the same brake specifications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is designed to replace worn or damaged rotors, restoring braking efficiency and safety for these specific Ford and Mazda trucks and SUVs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Issues Addressed by This Rotor\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake pulsation or vibration caused by warped rotors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduced braking performance due to rotor wear below discard thickness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorrosion and rust buildup affecting rotor surface integrity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverheating and brake fade during heavy or prolonged braking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUneven brake pad wear resulting from damaged or uneven rotors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen installing the DuraGo BR54097-01 rotor, ensure the rotor surface is clean and free of any contaminants. Verify that the rotor thickness is within the nominal specifications and above the discard thickness limit. Since this rotor is non-directional, it can be installed on either side of the vehicle without concern for rotation direction. Always torque mounting bolts to manufacturer specifications and inspect related brake components such as pads and calipers during installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance and Warranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuraGo rotors are manufactured to meet or exceed OEM standards for fit, form, and function.
