F53 Brake Advice
I am looking to replace the brake system on our 1996 Dolphin 535 (Ford F53), as the pads are worn and have begun to gouge the rear rotors. Not to mention the entire system is old, so I want to replace...

Very good chance the prior owner cooked that rotor. You either have hard and soft spots on it, or it is warped causing the pulsing pedal. Also notice the uneven wear on the pad, meaning less contact area for braking power.
I completely agree. Either way my logic is a new rotor is better than a scored one.
Everything is smooth as can be now... except I'm not happy at all with the pedal travel. I've bled over a gallon of fluid with no air, but the pedal still feels spongy to me. So, I've been doing some research and I believe this has the hydroboost braking system, so tomorrow I'm going to bleed again using that method turning the steering wheel Stop to Stop.
