I would find out what brand they are. Remember, the whole front of your truck rides on these. Not a good spot to cheap out.

No they don't come with rotors, 1.25 is the size rotors that fit those spindles.

Does the ebay user have another auction with rotors or something? I am not seeing where his cheap spindles is a package deal that includes rotors or anything. The ad does mention they are for use with 1.25" rotors, but does not say it includes them.

Re: drop spindle & rotors too good to be true?

cheap & brake parts are not a good combo of words...plus drilled and slotted rotors are over rated IMO..a good set of pad D52's would give you killer stopping power..unless you jus want tha drilled and slotted rotors for looks..
