I need to replace my brake pads/rotors. Just looking for options, purchase locations, and prices. What has everyone else done?? Note: I am driving a 2005 Diesel, so I have discs in the rear, but I'm still interested in hearing what pre-disc-rear owners have chosen/proven in the fronts. |

Well, I am gonna keep an eye on this one, because i do not have anything to contribute. My current brakes are just the plain old Mopar and...well...they suck. I want to upgrade them to something just unsure what. |

Are you swapping the rear when you do the SFA Troy? If you are then I assume you will be getting rear discs. ??? |

Yep I sure am,going to 12.5" Wilwood rear discs with 4 piston caliphers and ceramic pads,12.5" high ductile iron rotors with ceramic pads for the front.If the stock master cylinder doesn't work good enough(after I modify the poprotioning valve a little) I will be getting a hydroboost setup,custom made by Vanco.

I run Napa rotors and regular pads. I used to like Ceramic pads but they started to cook my rotors when trailering so I went back to a regular pad. I have drums in the back but those are still 100% factory original. |

I am thinking of going to Powerslot rotors front and rear with ceramics...I just can't stand the dust of these regular pads. I can't keep the wheels clean. Maybe I just need black rims!
