  • Rear Brake wear

    Just did a tyre rotation and noticed that the rear pads were wearing approx 50% more than the fronts.
    I replaced pads, discs all at the same time a couple of years ago.
    The vehicle has a 50mm lift and am wondering if the rear brake Bias Adjuster needs adjusting?
    Any help/suggestions appreciated

    Regards

    Thinking upon it, lifting the rear would mean the proportioning valve would see it as nose dive/tail lift and reduce the rear bias. Anyone see a flaw in my logic?

      I would get the rear callipers checked as they could be dragging, or another thing could be the material the rear pads are made from, are they the same friction material as the fronts. Having the same brand front and rear does not mean that the friction material is the same either, as the fronts do most of the work.

        Just checked a mates 90 series, my brakes do not seem to have the same "bite" as his.

          I'd say your front calipers are seized / not engaging sufficiently or the LSPV valve is siezed and not sending enough pressure to the front calipers.
