    Brake pulsing

    Warping of rotors can also be caused by the rotors being hot and then cooled off quickly as in driving in the rain. Most retail part stores rotors are not tempered as the factory ones are. Best to get the slotted and drilled rotates that cool quicker so the water from puddles and rain, etc...

    Brake pulsing

    I have an 02 quad cab prerunner I bought new. I really was skeptical about the price because of how high sticker price was and the truck really wasn't all decked out or anything. What sold me was it didn't drive or ride like a truck, then after putting over 600,000 miles on it, as of right now...
