How do I improve the stopping distance and
brake pedal feel of my 4 wheel drive?
Answer: By using DBA Slotted Rotors
(Left & Right handed) or DBA Gold (cross-drilled &
slotted).
These disc brake rotors help remove/reduce resin build-up
from the brake pads which is a contributing factor to brake
fade.
Please note, a good (reputable) quality
brake pad is essential.
--------------------
Good pedal feel and the ability to pull up over 2 tonnes of
vehicle quickly and effectively make the DBA Longlife Slotted
disc brake rotor the ideal way to improve the braking performance
of most popular 4WD vehicles.
This proven upgrade can enhance the safety of these heavy
vehicles in all driving conditions – from dense city
traffic, right through to snowy peaks and rough desert terrain.
The unique design of DBA Longlife Slotted – which includes
directional slotting – also provides better brake pad
life and will effectively clear water, dirt and grime from
the braking system when driving in challenging conditions.
As no other modifications are required, simply have a technician
remove the old brake discs, fit the new rotors and –
after the normal “bedding in” period – notice
the performance gain.
Australia, one of the biggest markets in the world for 4WD
vehicles, has provided a great testing ground with some of
the toughest conditions found anywhere.
Equally tough taskmasters, Australian drivers use their 4WD
vehicles for city and outback driving because of their formidable
versatility and load-carrying ability. With road temperatures
commonly in excess of 50º Celsius, these vehicles are expected
to work hard all day, often while heavily laden.
With such demands placed upon it, the DBA Longlife Slotted
rotor’s composition of high strength alloy iron (with
high thermal properties) provides tangible benefits: durability,
reliability and the ability to stop without drama – time
after time.
