Brake pads
Ok, I've decided to hold off on the big brake set, but I have to get these pads changed out. I had a full brake job done on it back in June / July and the dumbasses used cheap generic pads...now the whole front caliper assembly vibrates whenever I'm driving and I get a distinct ::CLICK:: sound when I press on the pedal...
SO, what pads do you all recommend? I've heard good things about Hawk brand but I have no personal experience. Any recomendations and part numbers are highly welcome! Thanks all, -Nate

Re: Brake pads
Sounds like they left the tension springs out if you are getting a click.
my recomendation for a street/aggressive street pad is the Hawk HPS. Has a good bite to it. |

Re: Brake pads
Are those the same as anti-rattle clips? If so, they are still there. I pads suck *** though. Some kind of sh*t generic things. I just wanted to get it done quick...should have done it myself.

Re: Brake pads
Yea, anti rattle clips. He may have also installed them incorrectly.
Check for slop in the cotter pin and replace if needed. |

Re: Brake pads
Where's the best place to pick up the Hawk HPS's? Do you have a part number?

Re: Brake pads
Hit tire rack. Have good prices and instant availability. I think it's around 180 for front and rear shipped.
Actual price 95 front 59 rear plus about 10 for shipping. Last edited by Jeffvette; 03-02-2006 at 09:14 PM. |
