Depending on the car, some disc brakes are made of steel, aluminum or carbon fiber.
X-runner's don't come with rear disc brakes. Only 4wd I think and those are 6 lug instead of 5
Replacing disc brakes can be a tricky task. First, you must make sure they are cool enough to touch, then bleed them and take apart the brakes. You can put new pads and discs on to finish the job.
brake pads are decently easy to replace for disc bakes, but more complicated for drum brakes. for disc brakes all you have to do is remove the wheel, take off the caliper and depress the piston, then put in the new pads and put the caliper back on. the caliper is held on by 2 bolts on almost every car. for drum brakes you have to take off the wheel and drum. the drum slides off like the wheel. but the pads in drum brakes have a bunch of springs and clips attached to them and you have to adjust a little ratcheting screw spacer. it can be done easily but requires slightly more thinking. NEVER HIT THE BRAKE PEDAL WHILE ANY CALIPERS/DRUMS ARE REMOVED it will cause the pistons to fall out and you will have to rebuild your calipers/drums
Brake drums can not be cut. The shoes inside can be replaced.Only disc brakes(rotors) can cut.

To adjust the front disc brakes on a bike, start by loosening the mounting bolts on the brake caliper. Then, squeeze the brake lever to center the caliper over the disc rotor. Tighten the mounting bolts back up and test the brakes to ensure they are working properly. Adjust as needed until the brakes are responsive and the wheel spins freely without rubbing.
To tighten the disc brakes on your bike, you can adjust the brake caliper by turning the barrel adjuster or using an Allen key to adjust the caliper position. Make sure the brake pads are properly aligned with the disc rotor and adjust the tension of the brake cable if needed. Test the brakes to ensure they are working effectively before riding.
Front or rear.. disc or drum type..??????????
Front disc, rear drum.
We would need to know what type of brakes you have... S-cam air brakes, air disc brakes, air piston brakes, air wedge brakes, hydraulic drum brakes, hydraulic disc brakes... they're all different.
disc brakes are self adjusting unless the pads are bad or the caliper is bad.
