Default Brake recommendations

Hi all - seems I need to do the front brakes on my 18 F150. For some reason the left rotor has a small gouge in it. I'm thinking of just doing all four corners with new rotors but wanted to see if anyone has down PowerStop, etc or just stuck with Motorcraft?

Appreciate some input.

Many of us have installed the Power Stop Z36 kit and been very happy with it. Less noise, less dust, better braking.

Did the power stop brakes on my 14 XLT when I had it. It was a great choice. Loved, loved the braking power. I feel like they kept me from rear-ending a 18 wheeler one night in a rain storm.

Skeptical when buying but ended up being very pleased. Not necessary but ended up doing all 4 corners at once.

Good luck

I just had brakes done on my 2015 at 100k. Replaced rotors and pads with factory parts. Figured if I got 100k on the original brakes, no sense trying anything different. I drive almost all highway.

I like the raybestos equipment from rock auto if I was to do it tomorrow. I haven't had a need to on my F150 yet. But last time I priced it out I could get the raybestos stuffs in my hand cheaper than the powerslot kit.

Here's what I purchased and if you look in my signature, you'll see I run some big tires and I tow a 24' pontoon boat. They stop the truck excellent, even when towing the boat.
