I have used the search function and didn't really find what I was looking for. Other than getting ***** at a dealer where can I get the original brake rotors and pads?

100k and need replacing.

For OEM equipment you might try dealers on the internet like Tasca Ford.

That's a good idea, especially for the pads. Rotors from NAPA are just as good, but they may not be any cheaper than Tasca.

If you want to upgrade let me know I have a set of EBC Redstuff unused pads and EBC slotted rotors for my 2003 MM; all packages are unopened in original shipping packages; I wont be using these do to the fact that I am installing Wilwood front and rear kits to the car to handle the modifications that Reinhart Performance are implementing. Allen. I paid over 500.00 for them.

Thanks, I remembered about him right after I started the thread. Working with him right now. There is about a 40$ difference between the Ford and Motocraft.

OEM Ford pads are different. They will last twice as long as the Motorcraft pads.

A couple of weeks ago did a visual, non-teardown inspection of the front pads and noted that they were beginning to thin. So decided to do a front brake job. 103,450 miles.
original, OEM pads and rotors.
pads were ~80% worn. *Could have gone several more 1000miles, though they were feathering on the edges.
rotors were turned. *7/1000 taken-off the RH, 9/1000 taken-off the LH.Replacement pads were Motorcraft OEM part # BR-931B. Reason for choice ... EXCELLENT performance from previous set.
low amount of brake dust.
no squeak, etc., noise.
good stopping with little>no fade nor pulsation.
EXCELLENT wear.
minimal rotor wear.Total co$t was $100. *$40 - pads / $60 - turning rotors and installation.

I've had good results from Rockauto.com. Low prices and fast shipping.

Rockauto has Motorcraft pads and rotors.

I agree you can try Rockauto.com for Motorcraft parts however if you're looking for originals like you said the dealer is your only choice.

PBR provides OEM rotors and pads at significantly less cost compared to dealers. Most car parts stores can get them for you. I did my MM all around with these quality parts last year. Still Happy. :)
