- 93 Explorer XLT
A 93 XLT 2wd was given to me about 6 months ago and I’ve been attempting to restore ever since. When I got it, it didn’t run but after troubleshooting it to the fuel pump (With much help from you guys) and after replacing the pump, it runs great. Shortly after I got it running all the brake lines rusted through and leaked like crazy. So I replaced all the brake lines, the shoes, and pads. Now I face the dreaded inspection. The drums were ground and the guy said they'd pass no problem, but he couldn’t grind the rotors because the fins were too rusted. My question to you is what’s the minimum thickness of the rotors to pass inspection? I have a caliper so I can measure them but I just don’t know how thick they need to be... I don’t plan on driving this vehicle for a while seeing as I’m only 14 but it may be used for the occasional run down the street. Buying new rotors isn’t an option seeing as I’ve already blown my budget.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
