I forgot to include that castor on the Delorean is NOT adjustable. If
it is out of spec (3-1/2 to 4 degrees positive) then something IS bent
or broken. There are really only 2 things that are adjustable on the
Delorean. The front toe-in and the rear thrust angle. If ANY other
alignment is out of spec something is worn-bent-broken. To find the
rotor causing the pulsation all you need is a dial indicater and
micrometer and just check each rotor for parallelism and runout. Some
venders do not recomend cutting the rotors although many people have
had it done successfully. If you do cut or replace the rotors then it
is recomended that you replace the brake pads. Always replace in sets
ie: both fronts or both rears, never just on 1 side.
