RE: [DML] front brake rotor replacement

["Buckner, William" <William.Buckner@xxxx>]

Walt,

I had the same problem with my Suburban a while back (1990 with 218,000
miles so far). I had a panic stop with a trailer attached that heated
things up real bad. After that I had pulsating brakes. The brake rotors
were only one week old. The problem was traced to "cheap" rotors bought at
a NAPA store. You know the ones, the one year warranty instead of lifetime?
I replaced them with the higher quality (from the same NAPA store) and the
problem went away for ever. I suggest replacement of the rotors with some
from the premium suppliers of Delorean parts. 

P.S. I sure complement your tenacity, Walt. I think you could write this
groups reports by yourself. The issues you have had with your car have been
both enlightening and entertaining. Thanks for your constant input.

Driving hard in the mountains of Colorado I'm sure I
often do the equivalent of two quick consecutive panic
stops from 60mph. My rotors haven't warped. 

I suspect the problem lies elsewhere.
