Here's the 1966 Bronco pulled into the shop for a frame swap. The body has been removed from the old frame so that it can be installed on the "new" frame. (The original frame had been damaged by the previous owner in the process of installing the 289 CID V-8 engine.)

Scored Brake Rotor: 1



The Right Front Brake Rotor on this 1996 Ford Ranger has been damaged. The rotor has actually been cut by worn out Brake Pads. If you look closesly you can see the grooves that have been cut into the rotor . They look a little bit like concentric rings. A rotor in good condition will be smooth with no cuts or grooves. This brake rotor had to be replaced with a new part.
