Or other aftermarket?

RC1 Concepts. Outlasted any other rotors that I've had on a GMT400. Better stopping, too. Check the vendor list for the rep. on here.

chillax people. he's allowed to post up questions wherever he wants. OP, I cleaned up your thread.

I've used just the NAPA rotors and drums with good sucess on my truck, you could get something fancy like powerslots or something, but IMO, good quality OE type ones work great and cost a good amount less than specialty ones...

never tried RC1's though (never heard of them), they might be worth looking into.

Thanx for cleaning up the thread and the recommendation. Sounds like I may have missed some excitement.

This is what I got. Hope they're good. http://brakeperformance.com/brake-rotors/Premium-Dimpled-and-Slotted-Brake-Rotors.php?did=6465

I'm not exactly a DRAMA TYPE OF GUY. If it happens, I just walk away. Not so much when I was younger.

I don't have time for baby stuff

So you have goo luck with these? I did mine about 6 months ago and I did the full ceramic ones with just basic rotors and they are warped and squeak all the time. Any suggestions what pads to run with the slotted ones. Any suggestions

I also was thinking of doing a 4 wheel disk conversion. Anyone do this or have a link for me

They have outlasted every other rotors I've had on the truck in 9 years. & I'm hard on brakes! I'm the guy that's last on the brakes & first on the gas through the twisties! The generic ones I've used just won't put up with that.
No matter what, though, I always have rotors turned when they're brand new right outa the box.
I used the pads that they recommend to use with their rotors.
There are a couple of threads here on rear DB conversions.

I'll see if I can get a picture or 2. Having issues right now. There is a over abundance of lateral play in the turbo fan on the Suburban. Needs tires. It's revving funny - chugging - hesitating.
In addition I think the tuna can - CDR needs to be cleaned or replaced. I'm online right now to look up how to make a manometer to test the CDR.

For some reason I have a pic of a gasser 98 that looks like mine with the exception of the gasser bumper
