Help with brake parts?
I need to do front brakes bad (they are starting to grind) and of course I'm looking for the most economical way but not crap. Does any body recommend the Autozone DURALAST Brake Rotor ($27.99) each and the DURALAST-GOLD Brake Pads ($28.99)? What are some other options? NAPA? My truck is a 98 SC 4X4 so it is fairly heavy. All help is welcomed I need to make a decision before the weekend. Thanks Mark

I had Autozone cheap rotos on my 99 4x4 and they warped in 8k miles. THe cheapest rotors I recommend are the Brembo OEM replacementS. I can't say I've read one bad thing about them. If you don't want to wait for shipping, I have been very happy with two sets (different trucks) of Napa United rotors (the mid-level for about $55ea). I used Napa's Ceramix, but I've read good things about Reabestos Quiet Stop ceramic pads that are right around $50/set. I highly recommend ceramic pads and better rotors.
