There were 2 different part #s for the front and rear when I bought mine. I don't think mine being a dually makes a different.

So I took my wheel off and the outside pad is full, maybe 85% and the inside pad is gone, metal to metal.
Looks like the rotor is shot, but to hot to take off now. Will get pictures now

I need two pins for each side of the front right? So the kit I bought is for the front and comes with two pins, so I need two "kits", is that correct?

You can fix this and keep going if everything else is still in good shape. Here is how to do the slide pins. LINK

Hey, I have two slightly used front rotors, and two front calipers that I am trying to get rid of. If you pay shipping it all is yours. On a side note, your slide pins must have been not working properly to chew up one pad and not the other. Use some good silicone grease like sil glyde from napa. As far as rotors, I have been using Frozen rotors regular cyro'd rotors. They are done by diversified cyrogenics. They don't warp and wear like, well, iron. Have 40,000 miles on them and just got new pads put on. The rotors are barely worn.

My rotors have been warped for a while so I figured is was time to do the right upgrade. I also ordered the new pins.
I will follow guzzle's install for both the pins and rotors/pads so I dont miss anything and have a $$$ mistake like this again, but if there is anything else that I should do while doing this please let me know.
