Default Installed my new rotors today.

I went up to summit yesterday and bought a set of the summit brand slotted and drilled rotors. They were only $60 a piece, so I will have to see how they hold up in the future and if they would be worth buying again.

I drove around and broke them in and so far they seem to stop good and much better then the stock rotors.

Pretty easy swap? I've got some Power Slots and Hawk pads on tap for this weekend.

Super easy. 21mm socket for caliper mount bracket bolts, 22mm socket for lugs, 13mm socket for caliper slide pin bolts, a large C-clamp, some brake parts grease & brake clean!

That's it

It's also a good time to paint your calipers, since this is one of the few time you have them off of the truck.
