Default Best Brake pads?
Hey guys,

I have a 2016 3.5L Ecoboost Screw and need a new set of front brake pads, what is everyone using? I don't do much towing but would like them to be clean and quiet.

Thanks

If you aren't planning to do something insane like Wilwood or Brembo, I've been very happy with the Power Stop Z36 pads and matching rotors. Don't have them on my 2018, but have installed them on other F150s in the fleet... quiet, clean, and lots of bite.

Naw i'm not. I don't think I need new rotors yet, just pads so I was planning on just doing the front pads. Think I can get the Power Stop z36 pads and use them with stock rotors?

Thanks for the input

Yes you can get them separate. I am running from z36 pads on my truck now, and have the rears sitting in my garage ready to install.
