Pads and rotors

[Billy Goat]

While I have it tore apart, do I go ahead with Pads and Rotors?

While my ball joints stare at me going, really?

Kinda.


Could do preventative and pick up stuff in the morning and not work tomorrow.

Or put it back together and work tomorrow, with little extra wear on rotors and pads from WB going out.

It’s not fair. Don’t have a nickname for you. At least not something that I can post here.

I'd toss pads on, rotors are fine

Both is what I voted for.

Being more serious, I don't cut corners on breaks or tires and prefer early replacement as I don't find the savings of trying to get everything out of things worth the effort needed to keep track of it.

If I ran a commercial fleet, it would be a different story.

I voted replaced them, but that’s a lot meat left on the bone. Not a big tear down job if you need to throw new pads on when it hits the squeal strips. Ball joints are a whole other level.

Good timing for this post as I just did the brakes and rotors on my truck last night. I say do both pads and rotors because it's only two extra bolts to get the rotors off. Extra cost but not much extra labor. Mine were pulsating on steep declines and fast braking so I knew it was probably time for new rotors.

I’m getting ready to do pads and rotors all the way around on my tundra tomorrow. And an oil change. Not looking forward to it…

Pads rotors, Ball joints ...and those shocks are probably long in the tooth too.....if it's a job worth doing, do it right.

Aren't you glad you asked? grin

I have found insurance deductibles to be cheaper than actually replacing the brakes. I just wait until I don’t stop, run into something. Cost less than the brakes and you get a new pickup. Win win in my book.

Waiting on the ATF but I get to do ATF, oil and rear diff on the Tacoma here soon. Seriously contemplating paying someone.

It's a lot nicer tho when your driving only requires one hand.
