DAP also has DBA (Disk Brake of Austrailia) Slotted rotors for $139 / pr and Kevlar pads for $63/set (front or rear). I just installed these before a holiday trip with heavy-laiden road driving and steep off-road driving. After a rather scary 10 miles af getting them to "bed-in", I am very pleased with the setup.

Sor far (about 500 miles) the pads don't squeal at all. When using wore than light breaking, they really do seem to "grab" better, with less pedal effort. This made it easier to modulate breaking down steep old logging trails with huge off-camber erosion berms.

Until now, I had always preferred OEM pads & rotors. So far, I like these better. I'll report back if I change my mind.

For what its worth. I picked up a set of rotors through Kragen Auto parts. About $55 each, and they had them in stock.

if i remember correctly discount rovers sells the lockheeds. if not check with a local foreign car parts store. i don't always stick with lockheed.....some days i get other brands. as long as they are organics they always seem to work nicely.
