[QUOTE="OrioN, post: 3512158, member: 58562"] Of course rotors wear down, butt if u use one of these: [IMG]https://ae01.alicdn.com/kf/HTB1M5JgaYArBKNjSZFLq6A_dVXat/150-mm-6-Gray-Plastic-Mini-Caliper-Vernier-Gauge-Micrometer-High-Quality.jpg[/IMG] And it's well above minimum thickness with no metal to metal contact, you then use a sandpaper technique to give the rotors a non-directional finish. Rinse off with brake cleaner and bed in the new pads properly, which is key to having no issues down the road, i.e.glazed pads due to improperly bedding process. It's not my first brake job... I already took my vehicle for a test drive to the gas station to fill up for Tuesday... no wobble when pedal is applied, good to go! These trucks and that Ford transit cargo van I had last year have beefy rotors. Dunno about the feightliners or Mercedes cargo vans though. I also didn't get to drive the Isuzu reach, so I can't comment on them. [/QUOTE]
