Sean, I have sold a ton of brake rotors for the Dakotas over the years... I stopped offering the Baer rotors because, quite frankly, they are junk.
Have had way too many people have problems with cracking, warping of the rotors. Sure, they'll replace them, but at what expense? Your down time, plus you pay the shipping.
I've got Powerslots on both of my RTs... they work very well, and last.
(I'll beat Truck Performance on price for DML members :)
