ORU Frozen rotors

The stock brakes on the X are about toast. I have been doing some research and ended up going to Off Road Unlimited to get their custom brake kit for Super Duty trucks. The rotors are cryo-treated and said to never warp. This is the system they use on their BIG custom trucks. The pads are custom made by the same person for the rotors and are said to provide awesome stopping power. I just wont be able to put them on for a week or two. So if anyone is looking for a good brake upgrade, these did not kill my wallet. I will post the results of how they perform when they get installed.

Re: ORU Frozen rotors

I went with the power slots on both of mine. So far the slotted rotors and the Hawk pads stop awesome.

Re: ORU Frozen rotors

We have found that the Power Slot rotors are awesome too. They can also come Frozen or Cryo and wont break the bank either.
