How about a set of aftermarket rotors? Upgrade your pads too.

Upgrade? Not on pads for the price.Factory have proven to work/preform better then the majority of any aftermarket.Rotors are basicly the same eaither way.Of course you have drilled/slotted and such but as far as for most of us rotors don't matter and factory pads are top of line.

It only costs alittle more to do a 1st class job... get'm turned! esp. since you say they have worn 1/8" an inch... give that 100k+ truck some tlc.

Actually the bullitens and TSB's that came down over time from Nissan,Isuzu,G.M. and Chrysler stated if rotor finish looked ok and NO pulsation DO NOT REFACE.Now he has stated his are grooved.But if even then some minor grooves are ok. They also stated if turning WAS done to do a final SWIRL finish (anti directional)which we did even on new out of the box rotors.
