Hey Dave...

>From the Ford Technical Information Manual:

"Rotor Thickness: Front (new) 51/64-inch. (refinished) 43/64-inch.

Rotor Thickness: Rear (new) 47/64-inch. (refinished) 39/64-inch.

Runout: .004 to .006-inch."

>From the Ford Technical Bulletin:

"Front: .787 In. 20mm (new). Max Reduction per side: .059 In. (1.5mm). Min.
Thickness After Refinishing: .669 In. (17 mm).

Rear: .711 In. 18.5mm (new). Max Reduction per side: .040 In. (1.25mm). Min.
Thickness After Refinishing: .630 In. (16 mm).

Max lateral runout must not exceed .008 in. (0.2 mm)."

I proofed these pretty carefully, but you might want to compare notes with
somebody else's numbers before you start cutting.
