[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 544283, member: 52972"] All rotors will rust. Paint will wear off the contact surfaces and if the vehicles sits for a day or two, rust will start to form on the surface of the rotor. The only rotors that don't rust are the ones made from stainless steel, however they are usually much more expensive and I don't know if anyone makes Stainless steel rotors for the Sport Trac. Some rotor come with a cadmium coating that gives them a slight yellow tint. This coating will help delay the formation of rust, but this is only a surface treatment and does not last very long. ...Rich [/QUOTE]
