Default From This to that

No just think from the truck sitting at the dealership rotor rot set in. I drove it like this for about 6 months. Stops on a dime now. It was just one little strip on the inside that was actually working.

I noticed Amazon has the PowerStop rotor/pad kits for a decent price. Where did you source yours? Report back when you get a few hundred miles on them. That's the worse rotor wear pattern I've ever seen.

I've only seen 2 worse wear patterns, but that was because both had rocks caught in the brake pads. I've seen worse rotors too, but those were caused by idiots that didn't know any better or didn't care. lol. Glad you caught these rotors/pads early enough to prevent damage or a wreck.

Just don't forget to say they are "custom" rotors.
