303tacoma Keepin it Simple

I get tons of brown dust on my wheels terribly.

 

What the?? No beer in the pic?

 

That was after

 

I went stoptech

 

Yeah it kind of is

 

Nice!!
I though about that,but wanted to stay away from the drilled rotors..

 

I normally dont recommend them since i have changed them out for people who have cracked them however, these are the most expensive rotors i’ve ever personally owned...so i thought i would try something different.

Next time i’ll stick with slotted

 

Ya I thought about slotted, figured I’d go back to the OEM rotors,and try the ceramic pads..
Trying to find a place to do the break in with the slotted rotors and more aggressive pads is a pain in the ass..
Traffic is so heavy all the time

 

I-25... break in on the way to work with all the stop n go

 

I just use the right lane of rt40 and leave my flashers on lol

 

Depends on the time of day
It’s almost impossible to do this

 

I did 10 60-5mph stops and they were hot. Had my fluid almost boiling.

So now its time for new brake lines and new fluid.

I’m also now at 90k, so i’ll be doing new rear brakes at 100k

 

I25 id be brake checking all the assholes that ride your ass..
And flipping me off
Lol

 

I just did my rear brakes at 123k
They were pretty much done.

 

I had maybe 1/3rd life left when i checked them last.

I’ll probably do the full stoptech rear drum replacement setup

I did powerstop from rock auto
They sent me the wrong shoes, so I went bought shoes from advanced. Rock Auto pissed me off, said they were the correct shoes that it was a kit.. Well they packed the kit wrong..
They were for a trailer or something not even close..
The springs in the hardware kit were good, but the rest was useless..
They refunded my $ minus return shipping.... Comunnicated through email said that I filled the online form out wrong....
I’ll never buy anything from them again, you can’t even talk to a person on the phone...
RANT OVER

 

Yeah i’m not crazy about them either lol
