Guys,
My strut install on my sentra took a lot longer than planned (8 months!). The disk on one sidce is really rusty were I left it exposed to the air in my car port. Should I replace it or just drive it and let the pads do their magic? |

Depends but if it's good as far as material thickness... drive it. The rust should be off by the time you make it to the corner. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

B.
maybe hit some of the buildup with a crosshatch of 80-grit sandpaper, but there's no reason to go crazy with it. |
