    well my rotors should be delivered tomorrow...atleast thats what the tracking info says.... i already called and complained to the company. when i ordered the rotors from autopartswarehouse.com i chose next day shipping which for some reason was only $3.30..no joke. they then sent me an email like 2 days later saying my pakcage would be here within 5-7 business days...i called and talked to a rep and they told me the item was not able to be sent next day shipping. i told them the reason i ordered from them was becausee i was given the option when choosing my shipping to choose NEXT DAY shipping and i needed the rotors quick...its almost been 2 weeks. not to mention it was dirt cheap. Nowhere did it say the item could not be sent any way other than regular ground shipping (free with purchase of $55 or more). since the item was already shipped out they couldnt speed it up or anything like that. they offered me a $15 credit...better than nothing. The rep i spoke to was helpful...just wish when i called some where i could speak to an american...

    will post some pics either tomorrow if they come that is...and if i get off work early enough or saturday.

    Got em done! so after waiting 2 weeks and spending over $400 ive got my rear brakes all done. I got home from work friday night and my parts were waiting for me, went to put them on and the damn passenger side caliper was siezed up (explains why my pads were wore down to the metal). went and got a new caliper just so i could finish up the job. was planning on doing the other sides caliper in a week or so. (Always replace parts on each side of the vehicle together). got in the truck after i was done installing the new rotors and the one caliiper and still heard a rubbing/dragging noise. the other caliper was siezed up too but not as bad as the other side. bought the other caliper it this morning and installed it. Brakes work GREAT! Had a fun filled day, 8am oil change to replacing my caliper to changing the spark plugs on my uncles V10 f250 all by 3pm.
