New England B.S. Thread

For off roading, I wouldn't have chosen slotted rotors. I've been really happy with the Autozone blanks and ceramic pads. They're quiet, bite well and don't dust bad at all. I don't know if it's true or not but I've heard the Hawk pads can eat up a set of rotors and get noisy as they age. Hopefully you have better luck than the reviews I read!

 

Switching my order to EBC sport rotors because their reviews are awesome (saw quite a few taco owners in the reviews too) and I'm getting the EBC Greenstuff pads. Waiting for it to be 9am so I can call and change my order.

I have a month-old set of autozone blanks now and I'll get them turned in case I run into issues with the slotted rotors off road. I'll be sticking to rocks anyhow. I fucking despise water now...

 

I might be interested in going. Where is it?

 

It's not water, it's grit and mud that can get packed into the slots.

I've heard a lot of good things about EBC stuff. Honestly, if the rotors are only a month old, I wouldn't even bother getting them turned. I doubt they'll be worn enough to say so.

 

I'll keep my eye out for the dust issue. I honestly don't off road THAT much, so I need towing brakes and good on road brakes

Just bought EBC sport rotors with Yellowstuff pads and some Stoptech stainless brake lines because the OEM lines are hard to work with.

The new rotors I bought a month ago are screwed up cause dumbass me forgot to change the pads too. They warped

 

Made my truck shake here and there. Lots of brake dust . Always getting rocks and debris jammed between the rotor and caliper .
Might be different for you but that's why I got rid of them.

 

Yea, I canceled the power slot and went for EBC. About $100 more for rotors and pads in total, but it's worth it.

 

I had ebc pads on my street bike I loved them . I think you will be happier with this setup

 

West of Springfield . He posted it in the other thread to.

 

Holy shit, so you spent $350 on pads and rotors?!?!?!?! I hope they at least bought you dinner!

Damn son, I spent $150 and have a lifetime warranty on the pads.

 

yea out west of sprinfield is all farm/mountain land and theres old trails that were actually roads like 50years ago and they make for some good trail wheeling and plus theres fire access roads as well

 

I paid $45 for my pads from Toyota

 

Thats a little to far for me right now. Xmas coming up with a wife and 3 kids and all, can't spend much money on gas. Let us know when you plan again, I'll see about going next time...

As for a MEET I'm thinking after the holidays, spending money like crazy and not much left over for me time, nor mod money right now. I got a drift my Grandmother is handing out a big check to all her grand children so.... Lift time if that is true haha.

Once I'm lifted I will go to Henniker and NH runs.. An old friend of mine just moved back from FL to New London, NH he was from my home town so now I'll be up in that are quite often with the bike and truck.. Does anyone ride? Anyone willling to do a Bike/ATV ride? I know some great rides in South East MA and North Western, NH.

 

You going saturday or sunday? Thats only an hour drive for me. Plus my dad lives in south hadley so i might need to come check it out. Oh and stock friendly?

 

I'm up for ri whenever you set it up.

 

I'm intersted in going and getting my truck dirty. Was going to ask how gnarly the trails are but got beat to it...

All depends on how much crap i have left to do around the house when Sunday rolls around. Weather says possibility of snow as well
