    Baer Rotor Replacements

    I know Fordnut made a mention of this in another thread, but I felt it needed a little more attention...

    Many say the DBA rotors are quite difficult to get, and in a timely fashion.

    Deal with this company:
    www.knsbrakes.com

    3 business days from the time I ordered to the time they were at my doorstep.
    His name is Mark and hes a 1 guy operation. Super friendly, helpful and straight shooter.

    Part #'s are as follows for the rotors only:
    52102.1XSL
    52102.1XSR

    Fordnut's original (and quite helpful thread) here:

    The calipers are awesome though! They are made by PBR, same company who makes the Mach1/Cobra calipers.
    Rotors are GARBAGE

    Hello -

    Several of you here have gotten the Baer/DBA rings to fit up your kits that need new rotors so I was posting to see how they worked out.

    Currently we have blank rings only available and a couple sets of slotted and slotted/drilled coming over on the slow boat.

    -Ken

    I got mine long ago, they are working great. Glad Zack found you, it was hard to work with DBA directly since they work more on the wholesaler rather than retail level of customers. They didn't seem real interested in onesy-twosey sales volume.
