Brakes
Within the last 5,000 miles I put brakes and rotors on all 4 corners of my 2006 F-250 Crew Cab diesel, I cleaned and greased all of the places things move. Problem is the back rotors are warped already, and the drivers side back is hangin up BAD! How can I resolve this issue as $160 every 5-10thousand miles (per rotor) will be expensive?I have had the L R tire off 3 times and checked the caliper, the pins, and cleaned the cage (where the shoes slide) and tried Anti seize and two different kinds of high heat wheel bearing grease.

for what its worth....replaced stock rotors on my 250cc 2 wheel drive long bed 6.0 with Napa rotors and pads. Mid quality i think. no issues for 20k. there is still a slight shimmy at about 45-50 mph.....that issue has been with the truck since i have owned it. if i remember correctly that is a known issue with the driveline, carrier bearings or u-joints. i have checked them all and cant find the culprit....i like everything else about the truck so much, i have just learned to live with it. good luck.
