I HAVE A 2002 CHEVROLET 2500 4X4. I NOTICED THE REAR BRAKES WERE GETTING VERY HOT. I PULLED THE REAR WHEELS AND NOTICED THE ROTORS HAD RUST PITS IN THEM WHICH I BELIEVE CAUSED THE BRAKE PADS TO WEAR PREMATURELY. THE FRONT PADS AND ROTORS ARE FINE. I HAD THE REAR ROTORS MACHINED AND REPLACED THE BRAKE PADS. *NM
