Does anybody know whether or not they make front and back aftermarket drilled or slotted rotors? I am having trouble finding them.

In case you aren't aware - whether you use one-pedal mode or not, the truck will do a significant amount of braking using motor regen and not the friction brakes. They will kick in below 5 mph. So heat should not be an issue.

I *think* the only exception may be towing a trailer down a hill - I seem to remember someone stating friction brakes may be used more then. But don't hold me to that - research if applicable to you.

Thank you for the reply. I’m only switching because of aesthetics just for looks.

I can't say with certainty but I bet any F150 rotor would fit. That's where I would start my research if I were interested in aftermarket rotors.

Edit: just looked it up. F150 and Lightning rotors are the same part number.

RockAuto shows the Power Stop for both front & rear for 2023, but not 2024. A bit surprised that there’s a difference.

Ah'hh RockAuto . . . one of my "Go To"s" . I did a front brake job to my 96 2wd Ranger, Parts were 1/2 of what O’Reilly's Wanted, and they were Name brand, not house brand . .They also have my Gate's 6929 Kevlar belts for my Chipper (Oh, and best of all . . it's NOT Amazon)

I was thinking about doing this for 2 years now. I bought slotted rotors for my old f150 and i loved them.
