The numbers are all
FD rotor
.080
.080
.085-.090

What I found after more measuring is that the measurement on the damage varies depending on location along the groove's damage and also how deep I take the reading. Obviously with the damage the edge of the groove angles a bit so that the top is a higher number than the same spot but a touch deeper. At it's worst I found .090. I still haven't looked in my FSM or Haynes, I got home last night and realized I had work to do for this coming work week.

I have the day off tomorrow and am planning to take the rotors to a machine shop. I bought my tool from Harbor Freight and would trust a machine shops tools more.
