What options for Rotors\Pads

[Superdannyboy]

Also R1 concepts has slotted and drilled rotors and break pads all for around 4 to 500 depending on how you work the deals. They usually have 30% off and then if you make a cart and leave it for a day or 2 they'll send you a code for an extra 15% off.

And for the little tool to push back the piston it's like $12 at AutoZone I bought one for my little brother when I helped him switch his pads on his civic.

I also got a coupon in the mail from my local Ford dealer for life time break pads it said something about when you buy from them I didn't read it all and I threw it in the trash today since it expired today. Also had the works for 29.99.

If you value your knuckles and sanity, just rent or buy the actual retraction tool kit. Ford rear calipers need to be turned AND pushed in to fully retract them. Those cheap cubes and needle nose pliers require you to turn the piston while trying to muscle it back into the caliper.

Just speaking from experience, rent the tool. If you encounter resistance, crack the bleeder. Still won't budge, crack open the brake line at the caliper.

Hmm thanks for the tip! I remember it was a piece of cake on the Civic with the little cube but if the kit is better that's good to know.

After I break through 100,000 mile mark with my original brakes, I will get these as replacement...

So I tried to order these for my truck last week and no one had them in stock. Found them through Stage 3 Motorsports and I ordered them. They reached out to me yesterday and said they reached out to power stop and the front kit has been discontinued. I had no choice but to cancel my order. I don’t know if there redesigning them or what but this sucks. I need brakes asap and they seemed to be my only valid option but not anymore. Does anyone have any decent options for a kit similar to these? I hate piecing rotors and pads together.

Do you need the rotors too or just pads?

That's frustrating...no I don't want a mismatched set...I'll find another brand then...
