Pulling this out of my other post about the the Disc salvageability for a quicker response.
Reconciling Dave's Lux post and FSM, my understanding follows: each face should be no less than .030 for a total of .060. The .060 is less the cooling slots cast in the rotor?
The FSM states on 5-55, that the total Disc thickness should be 1.25-1.24, but no less than 1.20. I ask because I have access to digital veneer calipers, yes micrometer dials are accurate to .01mm, (might have dropped a zero); but if my measurement is closer to 1.20 total thickness or less than .030 per surface the Rotors, are scrap metal. There is surface rust, but no scaling, so a deep re-surfacing probably will be needed.
Drum and rotors are the same are the same, max .060. you can go .030 on one side and .030 on the other but no more than .060.
