Braking seems better, but I can't say 100% that it's the better pads and new rotors. I had the garage that failed me do the rear drums because he said they were getting pretty low (85,000 miles and I NEVER changed the pads back there). I can't do drums myself, so had him do it. Not sure if new backs are helping or if it's just the better stuff in the front, but there is a major improvment overall.
Napa had the greaseable tie-rod ends. I was going to send a link, but it appears their site is down atm.
***EDIT***
Also, check out this place...

Really competitive prices and they have EVERYTHING. This is where I got the EBCs from.
***EDIT AGAIN***
Link to the NAPA greasable tie-rods...
