You are right...had my boss at the Brake Shop call all suppliers...rear
rotors not available. I do have all the correct #'s from each supplier
though...just is case..HA! If you want the list just say the word.
Now, can you tell me about the e brake inside the rear rotors? Thats the
first I ever heard of it, funny...my boss asked me today, if it was that
type of emergency brake, and I did not know...now I do...he said he would
look and tell me....but what in the eantime can you give me for info. The
brake shop I work P/T in the office for, is a heavy duty truck repair
shop, been there for 60 years, same family owners.
