Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front rotors on the 2013 Ford F-450 Super Duty typically see higher loads because braking transfers weight forward; this makes front rotors more prone to wear and heat-related issues. Rear rotors still handle substantial loads on heavy-duty trucks and may wear faster if the vehicle is used frequently for towing. Understanding the difference helps prioritize repairs: warped fronts often cause pedal pulsation, while uneven rear rotors can affect stability during heavy braking. At Larry H. Miller Ford Lincoln Draper we inspect both assemblies, advise on resurfacing versus replacement, and outline costs and warranty coverage clearly. We regularly run service specials and can help you enroll in loyalty maintenance programs.
