ranger 4x2 3.0 brake rotors/pads where to buy

hye guys, where is a good place to get oem rotors and pads, mine are in need of changing and would like to avoid the stealership, not because of $$$$ but because i think they are way overpriced and that alone ticks me off.thanks

RockAuto sells centric rotors.

Wagner pads last 30K-50K mile, that's why I like them, and they're quiet.

thanks guys, could i possibly ask you for a favor, could one of you go to the rockauto site and send me the parts number to the parts i need, i dont understand the centric this and centric that, that craps confusing, and how do i know if i have 4-wheel abs or 2-wheel abs? Sorry just confusing to me,

I have a 2001 3.0 xlt non flex fuel with front coil springs.
