03 rear rotor question
I'm looking to put new rotors and pads on the rear (1500 4x4 2003 20in rims). Doing this cheap is a big plus, so I figured I would look on eBay for some rotors...all I see is front rotors and front and rear rotor packages. No rear rotors only. Am I missing something...is there even a differance between the fronts and rear rotors????
Thanks
Thanks

RE: 03 rear rotor question
yes there is a differance . The front are simple hubs that slide into the studds with nothing on the center housing. The rears have less rotor area than the front by about an inch or so and have the parking break set-up in the middle hub like the old schoolrear drum break set up. You can't see it installed , but they are there . Just follow the parking break wire you'll see what I mean.
