Got my new camber bolts in, alignment done & new tires on my Trac. Now its time to start thinking about the brakes.
There's some grooving on the rotors & the pads are in their last third, so I'm not in a big hurry. I'll be getting a new set of Wagner ThermoQuiet pads, since my current set has last me about 3yrs and at least 50-60k miles without squeal & noise. Anyone have preference & experience with replacement rotors for an '03 XLT 4WD? Brand? Standard vs drilled vs slotted vs drilled & slotted?
Also, I've had a couple different shops comment on the dirtiness of my brake fluid/need for a flush. Can I do the flush before new rotors & pads, or is that something to be done with new pads & rotors?
