Measuring the oil groove depth
Oil groove depth is the most critical dimension. If the oil grooves on the brake discs are too shallow or gone, oil flow will be inadequate. This occurrence will cause excessive wear and abrasion. See Table 1.Use a depth gauge to measure the depth of the oil grooves on both sides of each brake disc in each axle housing. The depth of the oil grooves must be greater than 0.38 mm (0.015 inch).
