Front rotor service limit?

Does anyone know what the minimum service limit is for the front rotors? Im pulling my rotors off today and want to see if they are thick enough to turn.

Just take em to Pep Boys and ask, they'll tell you... But dont let them give you any BS, they'll say things like OEM rotors arent meant to be turned or anything like that....booo.

Just replace them if your still using the stock non vented rotor your just asking from trouble turning them such as warpage even if they are still with in the limits.

I just slapped some fj60 vented rotors ($39) and 6cly IFS calipers (about $30 a piece I think) on my truck.
You can download the FSM for free and it will answer so many questions.

By the way, my rotors had 140,000 and were way thinner then spec. It just depends how they were driven / what pads were used.
