DuraGo BR901764 Disc Brake Rotor - Front

Durable Cast Iron Disc Brake Rotor for Ford and Lincoln Vehicles

The DuraGo BR901764 disc brake rotor is engineered to provide reliable braking performance for Ford Aviator and Explorer models, as well as Lincoln vehicles. Constructed from full cast iron, this vented rotor offers consistent heat dissipation and durability under demanding driving conditions.

• Material: Full cast iron construction for strength and heat resistance
• Vented design to improve cooling and reduce brake fade
• Nominal thickness of 1.26 inches (32 mm) with discard thickness at 1.2 inches (30.5 mm)
• Outside diameter of 13.58 inches (345 mm) for precise fitment
• Five mounting bolt holes with a 4.5 inch (114.3 mm) bolt circle diameter
• Non-directional brake surface suitable for conventional braking systems
• Center hole diameter of 2.8 inches (71 mm) for proper hub alignment

Technical Details and Construction

The DuraGo BR901764 rotor features a full cast iron construction that balances durability with effective heat dissipation. Its vented design allows air to flow between the rotor surfaces, helping to maintain optimal braking temperatures and reduce the risk of warping. The rotor’s nominal thickness of 1.26 inches (32 mm) ensures a solid braking surface, while the discard thickness of 1.2 inches (30.5 mm) indicates when replacement is necessary to maintain safety and performance. This rotor is designed with five mounting bolt holes spaced on a 4.5 inch (114.3 mm) bolt circle diameter, matching the specifications for Ford Aviator, Explorer, and compatible Lincoln models.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

This disc brake rotor is compatible with the following vehicles:

• Ford Aviator
• Ford Explorer
• Lincoln models sharing the same brake specifications

It is intended for use in conventional braking systems without ABS tone rings and is a non-directional rotor, making it suitable for standard brake setups on these vehicles.

Common Issues Addressed by This Rotor

• Brake rotor warping due to heat buildup
• Reduced braking efficiency from worn or thin rotors
• Brake noise caused by uneven rotor surfaces
• Vibration or pulsation during braking
• Corrosion-related rotor damage (note: this rotor does not have rust-resistant coating)

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the DuraGo BR901764 rotor, ensure the mounting surface is clean and free of debris to promote proper fitment. Verify the rotor thickness before installation and replace if below the discard thickness of 1.2 inches (30.5 mm). Since this rotor does not include an ABS tone ring, confirm compatibility with your vehicle’s ABS system. Use proper torque specifications on the five mounting bolts to avoid rotor distortion. It is recommended to replace brake pads simultaneously to ensure optimal braking performance.

Quality Assurance and Warranty

DuraGo manufactures this rotor to meet or exceed OEM specifications for fit, form, and function. The full cast iron construction and vented design contribute to consistent braking performance. While this rotor does not feature a rust-resistant coating, it is engineered for durability under normal operating conditions.
