Do the front rotors on a 2002 diesel 4x4 Excursion slide over the wheel studs? My brakes shake when I apply the brakes and I would like to have the rotors turned if they easily slide on.

Thanks.

Here is a link that I found to use on my 2003 Excursion. Good Pics in color and is step-by-step.

Excursion Brake Repair

Process is easy, but the bolts can be a bear to get loose. A little break free, a breaker bar, and some muscle will get them off. Air tools are good too, if you have them.

Hope this helps.

Good site.........has anyone tried those rotors?

 

I put Powerslot rotors on the front of my 00 V-10. Virtually eliminated the warp/vibration I had. I tow a 10K enclosed traielr with trailer brakes, but went through 3 sets of front rotors in just over 12K miles. I have had the Powerslots on for @ 15K miles now and no problems. Key to them is follow the "break in" instructions, I also used the Performance Friction pads all the way around, next step is to put the rotors on the rear.

 

I've been using stock rotors but may try these rotors out....I have ceramic pads on my 2002 diesel X I like them due to no brake dust on the wheels, are ceramics available with that set up?

 

You can use any type of pads you like, I just prefer the PF pads since I use them on my race car and found them to be predictable with little dust.
Biggest issue is heat build up and gettng the heat and gases away from the rotor is critical on our Excursions. Not sure why but it seems the Superduty does not have the same issue with brakes as we do,

Good luck
