Holy fuck balls..... I have a 4Runner on 35's. I upgraded the piss out of them and still nearly set them on fire once......

Its a brake pad with the brake pad worn away
>>
>>676667101


Oh the brake pad has worn the brake disk away, completely. First the brake pads went and they have pins in them to make noise when you need to change them.

She kept driving. Then it went metal to metal and it would have gotten worse. Also smelly at times and mushy brake feel.

This is what happens when you don't deserve a car and never learn even rudimentary maintenance skill.
>>
>>676667101

Just on the off chance you're not joking, I'll explain it.

That's supposed to be a solid metal disc, but the brake (pad -- that big hunk of metal on the left) has worn it clean through, leaving only that outer ring.

Crazy shit. I wonder what the other three wheels were like.
>>
The problem depicted in the image would be a silent one. There would be no "noise." The rotor wouldn't even turn, it isn't a part of the wheel assembly at that point. It would simply not stop, braking at cruising speed would feel like the car was making a sharp turn, but it wouldn't make a sound.
>>
>>676667989
But wouldn't there have been noise while it was grinded down that far?
>>
>>676667989

It would have to be rattling like a motherfucker though.

That's a brake rotor, the part of the wheel that the brake pad rubs against to make the car stop. Usually when your brakes are wearing out, you'll hear a loud squealing noise.
>>

>>676670768

>>676666106
I'll be the faggot that gives you a serious answer: the brake pad wore out, exposing the caliper which grinded it's way through the rotor. There would have been terrible noise for a helluva lot longer than a few days.
>>
I can't even figure out how that outer ring of rotor metal is staying on, unless the brakes are on and have stayed on the entire time they were wearing through the rotor.

You don't need to know anything but how to drive a car.
This whole "I'm a real man for knowing how to work on a car" is a justification for being poor.

My family owns an auto garage and this shit (haven't seen this specifically) is actually pretty common. It's a brake system. The circle is a rotor. The pad (shown on the left of the picture latched onto the circle) works by clamping onto the rotor to slow the roll of the wheel. The rotor is not supposed to a ring like shown here. It's supposed to be a disk. The pad has worn through an entire section of the rotor meaning that the person has not taken care of their car and has needed new rotors for a super long time and new brake pads for even longer. It's a joke about how women don't take care of their cars because the brake system is absolutely shot and has been for a very long time.

Sounds like you have a RAGING inferiority complex; else what could explain your need for validation on a fucking Japanese image board. Jesus Christ you give us real engineers a bad name acting like this.

Also let me address one more thing before im finished squeezing the last bits of bullshit out of your neck. You profess to be more capable to engineer a vehicle than a team of automotive engineers who have invented the state of the art but you simultaneously can't appreciate the most simple and routine maintenance regimens.... LMAO. You fucking poser. The idea that you might be able to do more than physically model bolt 3C on engine mount 4H is laughable; if you are an engineer at all. I bet your some fucking college sophomore that has founded his ego on the promise of someday being marginally more educated than the average guy. Go fuck yourself.

I never said I was smart or too rich. I even said it doesn't take a smart person to do what I do.
