    X2. If you try it yourself first, no dentless repair guy will touch it. Metal is not very forgiving, thin metal least of all.

    Maybe they changed the pad material for shorter stopping distances and it's not all bad . Mind you I tow a 5000 lbs boat and never had an issue. Do you break in your pads? Initial heat cycle is to get them good and hot through repeated hard braking or dragging them and then let them sit for a day. All the molecules line up and make the pad harder. And last longer because... Science

    Unless I got the last one.

    Not today, but last night. One of my Sylvania Silverstars stopped working. Driver side, low beam.
    Fudge!
    Same bulbs lasted forever on my Ranger, not more than 2 years on the Taco. Guess they sent the China bulbs instead of German ones. Cheap crap.
    So, I'll be dropping the stockers back in tonight.

    You can still buy it from Magnuson. It is the exact same, the only difference is the supercharger housing does not say TRD on it. Also different tuning options with it now as well. If you really want one, go to the performance and tuning category on here and find the thread supercharger mods and tips, it’s sticked. Tons of info for you read up in there.
