    Installed new TRD brake pads with Premium NAPA rotors...

    I performed the TRD pad Break in procedure to bed the pads to the rotors and I am very impressed with the results!

    Very snappy when using the brakes now...

    Some small cosmetic work. Original owner had all the emblems and TRD OR sticker removed and had a guy paint on everything. Might have been cool back in 1987, but now not so much. After 10 years they look even worse, so it is time for a change.

    Getting ready:

    Took several hours, but worth it. The oven cleaner trick worked, but it wasn't as magical as everybody had told me. Stuff was really on there! Worst part was getting everything strait, but luckily there was body lines to go off of. I know the Toyota 4wd sticker doesn't fit in real well, but I kinda like it. My new TRD OR sticker should be here for next weekend.

    What’s the hype with TRD brake pads? Compared to say EBC or otherwise

    Got new wheels and tires on my Prerunner. Went up a size from 245 to 265. Wildpeak AT3 and Vision Manx.

    yes I know, fake beadlock on a 2wd truck...

    Just moved to the PNW and my truck isn’t worth much as trade in for a 4x4. Figured putting some decent tires on will help for the time being.

    Next up is finding an OEM roof rack and figuring out where this loud pop/click/clunk noise is coming from in the passenger side front wheel area.

    20200627_115116.jpg

    Pretty sure the mains need replacing. Are there any 'upgrades' I should think about while this thing comes apart?
