The time has come for me to replace my brake pads - especially since I'm sensing a grinding sensation when I press the brake pedal. Would like to know what recommendations there are for replacement pads and the best place for me to source them. Also, I might need to replace the rotors (because of the grind) where should I source these? I am local in Maryiand. Thanks |

Check the vendor section there are a ton of people selling the pads. Discount rover usually has a special on some pads, British Pacific is also a good place, just shop around and get a good deal. I believe in the standard brake pads. I believe that DAP will have the cheapest replacement rotors, but do not know for sure and do not know that they are genuine. |

Call Nathan at Discount Rovers. He's still running a special on the rear pads for D1. |

One thing I wish I would have done when it was time to replace my rotors was upgrade. Don't make the same mistake I did, for not too much more cash, you can get better quality breaks to stop that beast: http://www.expeditionexchange.com/dba/ Tom |

Jay - DAP has complete kits - either standard or vented/crossdrilled rotors - comes with gaskets, oil seals, pads, rotors, etc for some fairly good prices. BTW - 98 Rock was plugging Jays Shave Ice in the AM the other morning. Free advertising! Bill |
