Measuring brake disc thickness?
Quick one
Whats the easiest way to measure the disc thickness? Is a standard plastic vernier okay, or is a micronmeter the way forward? Thanks in advance Andy

Re: Measuring brake disc thinkness
If there's a lip at the edge just make sure you're not measuring that. A micrometer is the best tool, but a very-near should do if you can get on the right part of the disc.
