( 2 rotors on the front ) one for each DISC brake
It has both Rotors and Pads. In other words disc brakes
Disc brakes are supposed to rub the rotors all the time.
With a hammer
There should be two rotors if your truck is 2wd. They are located where the brake pads clamp to. Rotors are also called brake disc. It's the round disc between the brake pads.
Are you sure the rotors are chrome. If they are chrome plated, the plating WILL wear off. They may be made of a Chrome Moly steel.....which is typical for rotors because of it's strength.
when there is a visable rigde / lip on the edge of the disc (rotor) when there is a visable rigde / lip on the edge of the disc (rotor)
I believe the awnser varies on what model you have... I have a 1999 galant GTZ mine has disc ( rotors ) front and back, The rear has the disc drum combo for the parking brake... Hope this helps
new pads should have full surface contact with rotors,as should old ones
Rims get hot due to brakes getting heated. Most vehicles have disc brakes in the driver's side front. Disc brakes have 3 major parts, pads, calipers and disc rotors. If your brake pads have worn down you can be causing scrapes or scratches into the rotors. Heavily using the brakes can also cause the rotors and the pads to become "glazed" over due to heat.
It would depend if your car has 4 wheel disc brake or only the front (2) has disc brakes. You would have one rotor for each wheel with disc brakes.
There no way to prevent them getting hot unless you don't brake
