If you are going through pads every 10K and are at 60K now, you could very easily need new rotors! Pads also eat the rotor depending on the compound and how much hard braking occurs. But there is something wrong with the brakes to cause them to eat pads that quickly, especially if they are the stock ones. At 40K on mine with a lot of high speed driver’s ed, they were thicker than some new aftermarket pads. Sounds like your calipers are probably sticking and will need to be rebuilt too.
New aftermarket rotors might be the way to go - several people on the board have changed calipers but I’ve never heard any data on how much better they are.
Stainless brake lines are a major improvement and Joe Darlington has done a lot of research and gotten some built that are heavy duty but still less than $200 for all 4 - http://darlington-offroad.com/catego...?UCIDs=1134065
He blew out several brands before coming up with these. Check out the cool brake bleeder screws also for one person brake bleeding!
