Gotcha. They are on the way. I guess the only things to decide is if I really need the new rotors and parking brake parts that I also ordered. I'll probably post a photo of the rotors for the opinion of the forum.

Agreed, new or rebuilt calipers are necessary, so cost is not the point, being able to stop, is.

Here are some shots of my rotors. Does it look like I need to replace them both? There are no deep grooves, but I can feel slight undulations across the surface.

 You can see the one is warped, by the grab/scrub wear pattern.

They look pretty thin in the pics. I'd replace them. Always replace in pairs.
I always replace the pads when I replace the rotors.
