rushed6 Member 137 Member For: 19y 8m 19d Gender: Male Location: Victoria Posted 18/09/05 07:38 AM Share Posted 18/09/05 07:38 AM ok here it goes comming back from the motorbike show with a mate in my ute decided to go the "scenic way" home and dabbed my pedal to the floor watching as the needle kept rising I discovered I was running out of road so did the sensible things and started on the brakes when suddenly yes you guessed it the brake pedal started to pulsate I know your thinking not another brake shudder thread but I stopped in time but did not like the shuddering, so my question it to you people if I put cross drilled or slotted rotors on my t will it do this or will it fix as I have read people who go to ford just keep going back the ute is an '03 model and is still under warranty but is it worth it taking back to ford or just buying \ upgrading the rotors?

For about 2 grand you get EXACTLEY the same pakage as the ford premo option this will certainly stop the shudder Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/20147-200kmh/#findComment-295494 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been done twice now. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/20147-200kmh/#findComment-296206 Share on other sites More sharing options...
