    Question Trailer Question

    New Z19, less than 100 miles on the tandem trailer, notice that the brake pads are hitting on about 1/2 the outer diameter of the rotors. Will the pads wear in to hit all of the rotor? How many miles? The pad on one wheel is wearing on all of the rotor.

    new pads should touch entire surface area of pad to rotor, no wear in two flat surfaces in the beginning-- something is wrong piston rotated wrong or pad not installed correctly might be dragging also

    New boat? It's under warranty; should include the trailer too.
