It's spring ... Brake work time 200

I am planning on pulling my 86 244 (Old Grey Mare - she ain't what she used to be) off to due some overdue service on the front end. (Tie rod ends) While I am there I will be adding new rotors and pads, changing the bearings ( I have a set laying around).

Although I would like to get rebuilt calipers, I Do not have the $ to get these at this time. They are functioning okay.

The question I am asking concerns the rotors (vented - Girling type calipers)
I see that FPC Groton has "Zimmerman" rotors at $25 ea
I have used Brembo on my wagon that I got from Trollhattan at what I think was a good deal ($98 for two rotors pads and hardware)

I saw what Kentucy Fried posted ... any comments?
