Well, I placed my 1st RockAuto order. Picked up a set of loaded calipers and rotors for the 1980 FJ40 front axle rebuild. The rotors have the partial GCX corrosion coating and the calipers come with the gold colored corrosion coating and ceramic pads. I will update this post with actual pics when the parts come in. About $257 including shipping and taxes for corrosion resistant loaded calipers, ceramic pads, and corrosion resistant rotors.....not a bad deal I think.
Rotor Coating Features:
GCX™ Superior protection from rust and corrosion
Double Disc Ground Braking Surface
Fully Machined Hats Centric®
Symmetric Vane Casting
GCX™ rotors feature Elemental Protection™ GEOMET® coating on the friction surface that results in 10% faster pad bed-in while eliminating corrosion rings, as well as full Elemental Protection™ GEOMET® coating on all non-mating surfaces to inhibit rust formation. GCX™ rotors are double disc ground to eliminate DTV issues, and feature OE style vane designs and machined non-friction surfaces to restore OE looks and performance.
