Alot of times the rotor can be turned back to a smooth surface. But if it is too far gone then you can get replacements at your local parts store and they range from 30 to 90 bucks

I have rotor removable tips here https://www.dieseltruckresource.com/...6&postcount=10

I quit having rotors turned long ago, especially if they're warped. The warp will just come right back. Beware of cheap autoparts rotors made in China, they tend to warp easily. Best rotors you can get for a decent price are Brembo from www.tirerack.com

I posted on this thread with some pics and details of hub/rotor removal when I did my rotors last Dec:

https://www.dieseltruckresource.com/...ight=hub+rotor

Them hubs can be really hard to remove. I also do not turn hubs but just replace them. I do turn the rear brake drums but usually once and then replace. After all the work it takes to get to the rotors its better to just replace them and forget about for a few years....of course thats my opinion.

Good Luck
Dave
