best brake rotors & pads

Hi to all,
I have a 2001 f250 diesel with 45K miles on it and I pull a 10K travel trailer. I warped the rotors last year because I did not have the trailer brakes set propery so I had the front rotors turned. I can now feel a chatter when I am going down hill at 60mph and apply the brakes a little to slow down. My question is, what would be the best combo of rotors and pads to replace the oem ones? Thanks in advance, Jim

Image: R1 Concept Brake Rotor
I have been very happy with the setup I have been running for a while now, slotted rotors from R1 Concepts and Akebono Pro-Act brakes which are angled to match the slots in the rotors. So that's what I have in the front, and then in the back, I have blank rotors from R1 Concepts and Akebono Euro brakes. With this setup, the car will stop on a dime and absolutely no squeaking or warping. BTW, before making the final buying decision, you need to do well research. It will help you to get the best one for you. I have found this Akebono Brake Review more informative and useful for you. Hope it will help you.

Why doesnt this forum page have a user delete option like ever other forum I'm on? And second why dont mods delete these one question no return OP threads?

This site is full of no return or dead end threads

Is this what Jimmy James was referring to when he was explaining the Way Back machine?
