    any Good, Affordable Rotors out there??
    « on: April 25, 2008 - 08:04:39 AM »
    I posted about this when i was a newbie, finally i have decided that i need to get my car mechanically sound before i spring for new TTI's and all. So, are there any good ones out there for a good price?  :chatting:

    I saw Goody had a disc brakes set-up on here, but i havent heard back from my PM about selling them seperate........ 

    :dunno:

    I got mine from Autozone a couple of years ago.  69.99 a piece althouth they are a one piece (unicast) design not 2 piece like factory.  I have a couple thousand miles on them now with no issues.  The studs that come on them are all right hand thread so that also won't be original.

    Do you need the whole disc brake set up or only the rotors? Almost any parts chain can get your rotors.

    Oh Goody, how could you  :roflsmiley:

    just kidding.

    yeah, i didnt know that there was a "cheaper" option. i also dont want to skimp on quality... just some recommendations... i dont want a high-dollar rocket with no brakes!  :22yikes:

    These are the Autozone ones.

    They are about 75 bucks each now.

    I am running discs off of a 76 Dart.  I just swapped out the spindle, rotor, bearings, and caliper from the Dart and everything fit perfectly.  I actually bought new rotors and calipers.  This way I can go up to the local parts store and get CHEAP parts for my Dart...I mean Challenger.  Just a thought.   :2thumbs: 

    And they stop my car very well.   :2thumbs:

    That's my setup. I know the rotors are under $100.   :ylsuper:

    Not so far, they seem fine.  The biggest problem was that I had ordered/shipped 2 and 1 didn't make it the first time.  That was before I found them in stock at a local store.
