Default Brakes! Can't get it right!

The search function on this forum is a mess. These threads get so twisted and hijacked.

I replaced my rotors and pads last month with this Lockheed kit from Atlantic British: http://www.roverparts.com/Parts/9542.cfm

I CAN NOT get the brakes to not scream. I even turned it over to a good Rover mechanic and he couldn't do any better. By the way, the brake system as a whole has been really addressed. I have a new ABS module, pump, shuttle valve, stainless lines, etc. The brakes themselves suck.

Should I try new pads first or should I scrap the rotors as well.

If I try different pads, what is recommended?

Thanks

First, call AB and let them know what is going one, they will help you.
Did you use any sound deadening material?

As Mike said call AB and tell them what is going on, I purchased a kit from them and my rotors warped in under 1k, they sent a new set out no questions ask, speaking of I need to call again, the new set is now warped, ugh
