Default Brakes

I have a '98 1500 2WD and have to get the brakes done about every 25,000 mi.

Not because they're worn out but usually warped rotors.

Anybody else experience this???

I'm still on the rotors that were on the truck when I bought it, and I tow a pretty heavy trailer with it a lot. Maybe you just need to get higher quality rotors.

What type of pads do you use? I know a lot of lifetime pads are made of a really hard material, and just tear the hell out of your rotors. If you are running lifetime ceramics or something like that, you may want to downgrade to more of a mid-range pad.
