Usable rotor?
Did a disassembly of my motor to do a rebuild and clean. I have this rotor I'm worried about. I wouldn't mind repairing it, but I'm not sure if it's repair-able.

If you got a file and carefully filed it out you should be ok. Is that the only bad corner? Almost looks like it was dropped on accident
|
Unfortunately, it sat in someone's trunk and got flung around for a day. I'll get some more pictures of the other side, it does have some issues on the other side of the rotor too.
How would I go about fixing that with a file? Other Picture: https://i.imgur.com/MZtTv8t.jpg |
bend it very carefully and file it back to specs, you should be ok.

I finally got around to getting another picture of the damaged rotor. This time with the side-seal location and corner seal location.

that rotor is no good

Thanks, I was worried about that.
I'm looking at getting a new rotor. I read on the forums that as long as they are within one letter, I can swap out a rotor without having to replace them as a set. Anyone have some input? I believe my rotors are E, so would a D or E rotor work just fine? 13B S4 N/A |
If the rotor is not the same letter, you could always get the compete rotating assembly balanced, then you would not have to worry!
|
So if the replacement rotor is not the letters I need, I can just send the whole assembly to get balanced? I could go grab a C or B rotor?
There is an auction listed two posts or so up that have a set of rotors on sale for 200, would that be a better investment? If I did go with those rotors, would I have to get another shaft, or would my original one work? Just trying to make sure I have all the things I need before my rebuild. |
