Title: brake dust shields
Post by: AB-SX4 on September 17, 2014, 01:53:05 PM
I'm trying to find new brake dust shields for our trusty SX/4, but have had no luck yet. Checked RockAuto of course.
The dust shields are so badly rusted that they are out of shape and scratch on the rotor.

Thanks a bunch!

I just bend them so they aren't touching and call it good. Sometimes I have drilled a hole in what is left and wire them back, but by that point I usually toss them. They are splash guards. Just be careful of your brakes after going through deep puddles or long drives in the rain.
