Looking to upgrade the brakes on my 2003 f-250 SD 7.3L. We pull a 30 ft airstream with regular elec brakes.
I have been seeing on the fordtruck.com forums the power stop rotors are good. I see them on Rockauto with drilled and slotted for the 2 wheel drive unit and wondered how they are preforming with the hawk LT pads.
Not really intrested in the drilled as most race cars use slotted but for what we do it probable ok
SO any reviews on this product.
POWER STOP AR8181XPR Extreme Performance Drilled and Slotted, on rockauto.
Absolutely not! I had drilled and slotted discs on my 2000 Excursion. They don't have as much mass as regular discs and they can actually get extremely hot and fracture between the holes. I went back to factory spec discs and pads and had much better performance and braking power.
