Re: [DML] ABS Brakes and cross-drilled rotors

Robert & other list members...

Where do you get cross-drilled brake rotors?

Also, from what I've heard about ABS breaks, when it was a new technology,
the insurance industry was pushing them (along with air bags) to be required
on all new cars. In theory and on the test track, they work great. But in
analyzing actual accident statistics, they do not help. In other words,
cars equipped with ABS breaks are no less likely to be involved in an
accident than cars without.

Go figure!
