Default 2004 F250 brakes and rotors

82k plus miles on this truck, pulls a 25ft Baja Outlaw during the summer. original rotors and brakes. Any suggestion on what type brake pads I should use when replacing? Factory ones sure did seem to do well! Need to have rotors turned. I am no mechanic but going to find a Chiltons manual or something and take off the wheels and calipers and see if I can do it myself? Any suggestions other than laughter?

If you got 82k miles on your factory stuff towing a boat, stick with the factory stuff. Rotors and pads are VERY easy to do on these trucks.
