• Resurfacing can save money upfront, but replacement with OEM rotors at the dealership ensures long-term performance and avoids repeated service if rotor life is already diminished.
• At Larry H. Miller Ford Lincoln Draper, our technicians recommend the option that delivers best value and safety; we clearly explain immediate costs and long-term savings so you can make an informed choice.

Front and Rear Brake Rotors

The 2026 Ford F-450 Super Duty requires a tailored approach to front and rear brake systems because the front rotors typically handle a larger share of stopping force. On heavy trucks, front rotors are often larger and subjected to greater thermal and mechanical stress, which can accelerate wear compared with the rear. Rear rotors still play a vital role—especially when towing or hauling—and uneven wear between axles can lead to pulling, vibration, or reduced stability. At Larry H. Miller Ford Lincoln Draper in Draper, UT, our certified technicians check both front and rear components, measure rotor thickness and runout, and recommend resurfacing or replacement based on OEM specifications. We explain the pros and cons of resurfacing versus replacement and how each choice affects brake pedal feel, ABS operation, and long-term costs. Take advantage of our transparent pricing, factory-grade parts, and technician expertise to keep your stopping power where it needs to be. Ready to protect your investment?
