Rotors and Bearings ? 1999 E250

Front rotors after pick up from machine shop ---

How important is it, if at all, to put the same bearings back with the same rotor after machining ? Assuming the bearings and race are in good shape.

Why not just use new bearings and seals? To me it doesn't make sense re-using bearings after you've gone this far already. If budget alone is the issue I totally understand but from a smart maintenance POV new parts is the better path.

YMMV, just my $0.02 worth mind you.

Yup...I've become more budget conscious. Probably get bearings and seals as I have in the past.

Thanks for your reply.
