You can machine your front rotors well within safety criteria , but just one time if you need.
I guess it costs you appro. $30-40 for pair.
There is absolutely no reason to spend the money/labour to remove the rotors/hubs (more than $30-40), separate the rotors and have them machined if the poster says they are still good.
To the original poster, tackle the small things first before you spend money on something that is either not needed or has been done already.
For your original plight, you might not need calipers
does it click when you tap on the brakes ? move forward and lightly press the brake pedal, let go immediately, press again, like tap on , off , tap on, off... with the window rolled down.
do you hear the click when you tap the brake pedal ?
If so, then you may need new brake pad clips. they either expanded or are just a 'hair' not the right fit. they are about a loonie for a pair.
ex. if you buy PG montero pads and put the pads in using the old spacegear shims/clips, you will probably get the click click sound after a while.
very small differences between the pad clips from one manufacture to another.
it's not vital you swap them out right away. just annoying.
