Default Breaks

A couple of quick questions about front disc breaks on an F-150 (2009). I've changed disc break before not really a big deal, anything special I should know about the '09 F-150? Also how do people feel about turning down the rotors each time you chnage the pads. I did not turn the rotors on my wife Ford Escape and it developed a "noise" when you steped on the breaks. Dealership said it was because the rotors were not turned. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

The noise the escape developed could of been from cheap pads...just inspect the rotors ... if they look messed up...turn or replace...if not they will just eat up the new pads...and cause other problems. Welcome to the boards Dan.
