What else can I help you with?
Will a broken motor mount cause the front end of a vehicle to shake when braking.?
not usually. warped rotors will cause a vibration during braking.
What percent of braking are Front wheels responsible for?
What percent of braking are front wheels responsible
What would cause the steering to pull to one side during heavy braking but not during light braking The rotors calipers wheel cylinders have been replaced on front and rear.?
My guess would be that you might have a bad brake hose to one of the front calipers.
Where would inertia cause the weight of a vehicle to shift during hard braking?
During hard braking, inertia would cause the weight of the vehicle to shift forward towards the front wheels. This is because the momentum of the vehicle is being slowed down, leading to a weight transfer from the rear wheels to the front wheels.
Why do my Front end shakes while braking on a 1999 silverado?
Your rotors are probably warped from getting hot during braking and need to be "turned" or replaced. I suggest you take it to a brake shop or dealer.
What are the advantages of front wheel brakes in terms of safety and performance in comparison to other braking systems?
Front wheel brakes offer several advantages in terms of safety and performance compared to other braking systems. One key advantage is that front wheel brakes provide better stopping power and control, as they are able to distribute the braking force more evenly and effectively. This can help reduce the risk of skidding and improve overall handling and stability during braking. Additionally, front wheel brakes can also help to prevent the vehicle from veering off course during sudden stops, enhancing overall safety and responsiveness on the road.
During moderate braking What is the approximate brake force distribution between the front brakes and rear brakes?
I beleave it's Front 60% and Rear 40% that is distributed between them both
What is a dual-diagonal braking system?
Dual diagonal braking is where the brakes are on two systems right front and left rear as well as left front and right rear. This is to give even braking in a partial system failure
What is the Brake ratio for front wheel drive?
The brake ratio in a front-wheel drive (FWD) vehicle typically refers to the distribution of braking force between the front and rear wheels. In FWD cars, a common brake ratio is around 60-70% of the braking force applied to the front wheels and 30-40% to the rear wheels. This distribution is due to the weight transfer that occurs during braking, which places more load on the front wheels. However, the exact ratio can vary based on the vehicle's design and intended use.
What is the difference between front brakes and rear brakes?
Front brakes are primarily responsible for slowing down a vehicle during braking, as they handle a larger portion of the vehicle's weight transfer forward when stopping. This results in greater stopping power and heat generation, necessitating stronger materials and designs. Rear brakes, while still important for overall braking performance and stability, typically handle less braking force. Their primary function is to balance the vehicle's braking dynamics and prevent rear wheel lock-up during hard stops.
Shuddering from front end during braking?
Possibly a rotor scored badly or warped from overheating, maybe a piston that's sticking. Either way, essential to strip the front brakes and check everything.
When to have brake maintenance of Honda 2003 Honda Odyssey?
The front brake pads have wear indicators that will cause a squealing noise during braking when the pads need replacement. If you don't have this noise during braking they don't need replaced. Rear pads should last through 2-3 sets of front pads. The brake fluid should be replaced every three years.
