You can get rebuilt calipers at NAPA, and they used to have rotors also. The US made rotors are a lot better than the Kun Fu ones, but quite a bit higher.

Try asking for 70 through 74, the e bodies were the same. Also ask for 71/72 B body, found that they don't show a Road Runner, but they do list a Satellite. The Ram man should have them.
Rock auto has them listed.

At the shop we used almost all store brand rotors.The US made ones we did use we had more problems with than the cheap ones.In 30 years Ive replaced thousands.Had very few house brand drums or rotors that were a problem.Pads I run ceramics on my 65 that has 70s B body pin calipers.Big improvement over the Bendix pads I had on.Rocky

73 and 74 used the later style rotors.
