Ali,

I like the diagnostic thought involved with your technique.

If you can get access to an infra red thermometer, you don't even have to go to such extremes. Last week I drove an old (1977) 450SL around the block and put it directly onto my drive-on lift. The Front right disc was320 degrees. The rear right was 280 and the other two were about 150. We rebuilt all four calipers.
