Toyota 4Runner Brake Disc Maintenance Basics

The Japanese auto maker has produced some of the most memorable vehicles in recent history. This includes trucks and sports utility vehicles. A favorite of ours is the Toyota 4Runner. This is a brilliant conversion of a utilitarian vehicle to a more fun-filled ride. And one of the features that make it one sweet ride is the use of the Toyota 4Runner brake disc. This allows you to be able control and stop your vehicle more precisely whenever it is needed. As contrast to having drum brakes at the front, you have more confidence using discs when you are out for a long drive or even a quick errand. But to ensure that you get that consistent performance you want from your brakes, you should be able to take care of it well. Here are some maintenance basics for your brake disc.

  • Exert an effort to practice smooth driving on the road. It will affect your brake components.

We all know that smooth driving on the road can go a long way. It affects almost every moving component in your vehicle. When you do so, it reduces the unnecessary stress that your brake disc is receiving from being clamped upon by the calipers. For that, you should avoid jackrabbit starts and hard accelerations. While it can induce a bit of adrenalin rush, you will have to step on your brakes harder. This will put on more friction on the disc to make your vehicle stop right away. Doing it frequently will take its toll on your components. And when you are approaching stop lights, we recommend that you allow engine braking when you let your SUV slow down while still in gear.

  • Avoid wetting your brake disc right after you come from a drive.

While it would be nice and thoughtful to your 4Runner to keep it clean and shiny always, you should avoid giving it a car wash right after a drive. Wetting your brake disc while it is still hot can damage the component.

Motorists can be very thankful that the automotive designs have progressed throughout the years. More so with sports utility vehicles. Back then, these big lumbering wagons had that very imposing presence but they were also quite a handful to drive. But as time went on, brands like Toyota came up with lighter SUVs. The 4Runner is one of their work of art. They took a Toyota truck and turned it into a more comfortable piece of machine. Aside from the comfort and performance it offers, there is also steering and safety. One of the components in that department is the Toyota 4Runner brake disc. It has been the standard equipment for most modern vehicles today, at least on the front. They provide a more predictable braking response as opposed to the reaction you get with the old drum brakes. But nevertheless, you should still maintain a constant lookout for signs that tell you something is wrong with that component. Here are some tips on how to diagnose your brake disc.

Tip #1: Notice if your 4Runner steers away from the current direction when you use your brakes.

One of the main purposes of equipping vehicles with disc brake systems is to provide you confidence in using the brakes. This eliminates the possibility of your ride from steering to any other direction as you come to a full stop. This occurrence used to be a frequent scenario with vehicles fitted with front drum brakes. But yours is equipped with discs. When this kind of issue manifests, it is possible that your caliper is stuck with your brake disc. Carefully examine and remedy the problem.

Tip #2: Drive your SUV in a straight smooth road. Try to feel any weird vibrations.

A vehicle with flawlessly working components should give you a smooth ride. However, if there's something wrong with your brake components, you can also feel it on your steering wheel. A material that gets in between the disc and calipers can cause weird vibrations when you steer your vehicle. This can also be another symptom of your calipers being stuck with the disc.

Is it okay to machine a customized brake disc for the Toyota 4Runner?

Absolutely. But selecting the proper material is very crucial before going ahead with it. The brake disc should be manufactured using the appropriate material. It must have a high friction coefficient that can absorb and disperse large amounts of heat without adversely affecting the braking performance--gray cast iron plates are a very good choice. Ceramics and Al-MMC are of the highest quality, but they can also get very expensive.

 

What is the best type of brake disc for the Toyota 4Runner?

There are four types of brake discs available in the market. The standard stock for all cars is the flat-faced disc; it has a large surface area that gives decent braking power. However, as the part ages, it has a tendency to overheat, and may cause the disc to warp. A drilled disc is also available; heat is distributed to all the holes that are scattered throughout its face. The downside is that a drilled disc is prone to cracking. A dimpled disc on the other hand, scatters the pad debris produced when braking. These are also lightweight compared to its counterparts. Lastly--and probably the best choice for the Toyota 4Runner--is the grooved disc. The face of the disc has diagonal lines cut into them to allow heat to dissipate when driving fast. It also expels brake dust to prevent pad glazing. But installing a grooved disc is a bit tricky; it has to be fixed in such a way that the groove spins outwards, opposite the usual rotation of the disc.

 

When should the Toyota 4Runner brake disc be replaced?

That depends on the driving demands sustained by the vehicle. If the car is used mostly for city driving at the usual cruise speeds, then the disc can last for five years at the most. However, if the vehicle is mostly driven for performance, the brake disc might need to be replaced at least every two months.
