Brake rotor question, quality issues So I'm ordering the Bendix 73mm calipers and also figured that new rotors would probably be a good idea. Question is this, are the hub and rotor components seperate, or do they come as one unit? Secondly, should I splurge for the Bendix, $92 apiece or get the Raybestos for $42? I want something that's going to be as close or better to OEM quality. Ignoring all arguements for slotted/dimpled whatever, are powerslot rotors better quality than the autoparts store stuff? Thanks
On pre 94 models, the hub & rotor are a single piece unit. Some new wheel bearings and grease seals would be a good idea too. Check to see if the rotors come with the outer bearing races already pressed in - mine did. If not, make sure that when you buy the bearings that the outer races are packaged with the roller bearing assembly.
Ive been pretty happy with raybestos stuff. Im sure its not as good as the bendix, but in the end, is the extra 50 bucks really worth it?
