What are your thoughts on it? Does anyone know who makes those rotors? I am planning to install it on my 95 Disco. But am unsure if I should spend the extra $250 on it or not. I checked with Expedition Exchange and they are out of stock on the DBA rotors, which were my first choice. Should I wait 3 more weeks, which is what I was told it would take for a new shipment of DBA rotors to come in? From what I have read on EE's site, the DBA rotors seem to be really good. Though I have not seen anyone mention it here on DWeb. I wonder why. Thanks a bunch in advance for all the input.   Bill Bettridge (Billb) Dweb Lounge Member Username: Billb Post Number: 1122 Registered: 02-2002 Posted on Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 11:15 am:    Try DAP also - they also carry DBA Bill   KC Jacob (Kcjacob) New Member Username: Kcjacob Post Number: 12 Registered: 02-2003 Posted on Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 11:18 am:    Bill, Can you give me a link or number for DAP?   Bill Bettridge (Billb) Dweb Lounge Member Username: Billb Post Number: 1123 Registered: 02-2002 Posted on Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 11:23 am:    see vendor section under resources....think it's www.dap-inc.com Also IMO forget the kevlar pads and go with standard. Kevlar don't work well when cold and/or wet.

"Cold and Wet" is probably a synonym for where I live. Bill, would you or anyone else on this board, recommend using the DBA rotors with genuine or Mintex pads?   Bill Bettridge (Billb) Dweb Lounge Member Username: Billb Post Number: 1124 Registered: 02-2002 Posted on Thursday, October 02, 2003 - 12:27 pm:    That's what I use - DBA rotors with ferodo pads.
