99 late build brake question

I have about 120k on the truck and have turned the front rotors 3 times do to heat warping.Has anyone tried centric rotors and pads before ? or am I better off replacing the rotors whith new stock rotors.I also have plans to do engine brake mod next.I load the truck up heavy about 18k to 20k gross, and live in oregon were I pull alot of hills which make for alot of down hill braking.I also need to know if my rear rotor and parking brake hub can be seperated.Any links you may have available would be appriciated(Newbe here)Also on a budget.

I just put on a set of front rotors from Applied Rotor Tech. They are slotted cyro and I LOVE THEM. Call A.R.T and tell the what's up. They do all there own work in house. Another thing you should DEFINITELY consider is the caliper pin upgrade. Guzzle has a speal on it. It is a must if your doing any work on your rotors. Don't forget the synthetic silicone caliper lube. The pins are about 20 a pop at the stealership, you need two sets(as a reminder). Definely a great improvement. THat's my 2 cent
