OT: Brakes on an '01 F-150
Sorry for the OT guys, but I know if I have a question, I can almost always
find the answer here.
My in-laws have an '01 F-150 (2wd). It has discs all the way around -- so no
ugly drums to deal with. They mentioned the brakes are making horrible
noises now, and I peeked at their rotors (what I could see through the
rims). They seem pretty worn/eaten (grooves). It's got a lot of miles on the
stock brakes.
They were going to take it to the dealership, but I know how much they'll
get ripped off there. I figured if those rotors/pads would be as easy to
change as the ones in my TJ, I'd do it for them. I can't find anything
online. Does anyone know?? I thought it'd be easy to find with this being
such a popular truck...
Thanks!

Just like any other caliper, these are held by a pair of bolts they
