kjf-150

Okay so with 130,000 miles on my moms 07 F-150 2WD the front rotor/bearing/hub assembly is shot...again. I replaced them once around 70,000 miles, and 60,000 later the bearings are shot again. Its making the same scrubbing noise, as well as vibrating pretty bad. Last time I used the cheaper ($80 maybe) rotor assembly from carquest. This time around I figured I would use a little better rotor that would last a little bit longer. What would you recommend/have had better luck with? I'm used to Super Duty's so I'm a little lost when it comes to F-150's. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I looked at those but the price is insane! Just for there regular replacement rotors they want $200 a piece. The slotted high preformance ones are even more than that. But I suppose it might be worth it. Anyone else?

EBC all the way. The $200 is gonna get you the rotor and seperate bearing. No more one piece bs. I have the drilled and slotted. Cost $500 from racemart.com Well worth it. The kit upgrades you to the Centric seperate bearing and EBC rotor. Of course you can always just order the Centric bearing and then pick your own rotor.

I saw those but didn't know if they really worked or would cause any problems. Does EBC make those or are they made by someone else?

You said you wanted good ones... go back to pep boys then.

The bearing is a Centric piece. The rotors are EBC. I am thrilled with mine. No problem stopping the truck on a dime even at triple digits. Make sure you use a proper torque wrench when changing the bearings. Stock or aftermarket niether will last if not correctly torqued.

Trucks got 130k If you get another 70 k on new ones will you still be driving it at 200+k do you want to put premium parts on a truck with this many miles Iwould weigh the pros and cons. bubbabud
