Brake pad replacements
Not sure if this is out there but what do you guys recommend for brake pads? Looking to replace mine but need to know which ones to go with. Best place to get them as well. I live in Canada

Brake pads for what? Kenworth? PeterbilT? Explorrer? F150? Tahoe?

Some like the power stop set-up, and find them on Amazon. I'll probably stay with stock, I feel they are actually pretty good. Once you get p/n, simply peck around for decent distributor with good price.

I recently installed the PowerStop kit (Rotors and Brakes) on mine. I'm not a fan of their pads. They feel squishy. You have to entered the butthole clinch phase to come to a quick stop.

I went with EBC Greenstuff 6000 and EBC slotted rotors all the way around. At first there didn't seem much of a difference from stock rotors and pads but they say wait until they are fully bedded in. At about 1200-1500 miles it was a noticeable improvement. Not night and day but overall a positive upgrade in feel and stopping power. Downside is more brake dust and some noise. Overall I would do it again and have been using EBC on other vehicles with positive results.
