Haven't been able to call my dependable machinist yet, where the only issue I've ever had was when I asked them to ream some lines for me. Wound up with a cracked one that caused problems that you can imagine. <br></p><p style="font-size:12pt;font-family:helvetica,arial,sans-serif;color:#333333;" class="default-style"><br></p><p style="font-size:12pt;font-family:helvetica,arial,sans-serif;color:#333333;" class="default-style">Question is, is it more cost--and long-term--effective to simply replace front rotors with new ones from one of the Big Three, or to ask they be skimmed by a quality machinist. I feel those "bumps" when I slow to a stop telling me that the rotors have high spots. Am suspecting the original rotors being 60 years old are tired and ready to retire.<br></p><p style="font-size:12pt;font-family:helvetica,arial,sans-serif;color:#333333;" class="default-style"><br></p><p style="font-size:12pt;font-family:helvetica,arial,sans-serif;color:#333333;" class="default-style">Thoughts?<br></p><p style="font-size:12pt;font-family:helvetica,arial,sans-serif;color:#333333;" class="default-style"><br></p><p style="font-size:12pt;font-family:helvetica,arial,sans-serif;color:#333333;" class="default-style">Terry Smith '59 TR3A<br></p><p style="font-size:12pt;font-family:helvetica,arial,sans-serif;color:#333333;" class="default-style">New Hamsphire<br></p>
