2012 Legacy H6 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 I'm looking to change my pads and rotors. Have already purchased both. Anyone recommend that hardware be changed as well? Or can I just reuse it all? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scubaboo Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Yup thats fine. Reuse reduce recycle, save the earth at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creep_nu Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 inspect...if everything cleans up nice and there's no rust then you're fine, but if they're rusty and crusty it can lead to pads getting seized Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apexi Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 (edited) Just to make sure, the new pads didn't come with hardware? If your old stuff is stainless steel, which it likely is, you can clean it up and reuse it. These days I try to buy pads that include new stainless hardware (Edit: I guess what I'm trying to say with that is, unless you love the pads, I'd return/exchange them for pads that come with hardware) Edited June 8, 2021 by apexi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any idea what the part number is - if any - for the 3.6R 2012? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
