Question 09 Brake upgrades

Anyone upgrade the front brakes on the 09's? I thinking bigger rotors or better rotors that don't warp so easily.

I know that SBC has some slotted rotors for our trucks front and rear. There brake pads are really good to. I had some on my older truck and they work good.

Bed the pads correctly. Bad pad material transfer is commonly mistaken for "warped." I did a front brake how to. I used hawk pads and centric rotors. Will never go with Ford oem again

I've used basic ones on my 05 f150 and they were better than oem.

I put Hawk pads on about a year ago. Original rotors with 88k miles and pulling a 7k camper.
