See yah Mr. one piece rotor and Hub

For those with a 2wd 04-08 I wanted to post my buy from R1 Concepts http://www.r1concepts.com/default.aspx .I had my left bearings go bad on a set of one piece rotors/hubs from Irotors at only 5k miles. I did try and email twice even Facebook their page. And call them never got a response or answered .

So I knew I would need to replace them .Thanks to a search on F-150 on line I found theirs a 2 piece up grade kit that's been out. Well Hot dog !!!After searching for quality and price I used R1 .They use all Centric products and just mill the rotors if you want the cross drilled and slots .My to the door price was $343.00 free shipping that came fast after a 2 day mill delay. The kit came with 2 axle nuts, 2 Hubs ,2 e-line drilled slotted rotors . I order the Posi Quiet pads as well .They came with the clips and new caliper bolt boots. Long story short Stay away from I Rotors .Shop R1 Concepts and do the up grade !!!![IMG][/IMG]

Nice, I've been wanting to get those for my truck... but the brakes are still way to good to throw away.

Make sure you tighten those spindle nuts down at exactly 295 ft/lbs. Seems like a lot, but that is what Centric says.

Yeah that is the spec 290-95 . I bought a 3/4" Drive 300 ft/lbs Click Type Torque Wrench from Harbor Freight with a online coupon and on sale for $64
