More, Reading through this thread I suggest you invest in a Bentley repair manual. It certainly sounds like you have the desire to learn more about the car and effect some of the repairs. It is true that brake work is fairly easy but judging by your questions I think a step by step guide would be beneficial. Even an easy repair can become expensive if mistakes are made and knowing exactly how things come apart and in what sequence will go a long way toward making sure your efforts are not wasted. To answer the rotor question you can measure the thickness and check it against the wear tolerance it also needs to spin without warp and be free of surface scoring.

+1 on the Bentley Manual.
I got mine 2nd hand from a fellow who was selling his. Snapped up his 101 Projects book too.
They both make great bathroom reading as well.
