Wholesale direct Bendix rotors direction????
Hey guys,
When I installed my brakes from Wholesale Direct last week, I installed them with the top of the slots facing forward, like eradispeeds, assuming that that's the way they were supposed to be installed.
However, I noticed in some of the pictures shown in this forum that they are installed the other way around.
My question: Is there really a difference in which way the slots are pointed with bendix rotors? I did not see anything on the rotors waying "left" or "right" and it looked like the veins are straight, but I'm not totally sure.
I am sending a message to Wholesale Direct as well, I just wanted to post this to see if I could get feedback sooner through those of you who might know a thing or two about rotors.
Thanks

I had the same question with my wholesale direct rotors and almost put them on like the baers but I ended up putting them on the opposite direction as the Baers. I don't think it really matters as long as the vanes are not directional.
