My Fav band of all time.

So if I change my brakes.. rotors and pads at the same time would be best. Recommendations?

What about the rears?

The blower motor.. just looked up.. 50-60 bucks. There are 4 or 5 of em. Which one?

Should I go to discount for a second opinion on road force?

 

On my Honda's I used Vato-Zone pads/rotors.. Life time warranty is awesome.> Never buy pads again! Had good luck with them too.

Rear's you need shoes.. I texted you prices for everything.

Unsure about blower motor.

 

brembo rotors and hawke pads, my truck stops better with 35's than it did on stock tires

 

How much play, if any, should be on the carrier bearing? Im starting to get vibes throughout the whole truck, checked my u-joints they are good, I always keep them greased.

 

Any body on here political? I can't say I am but I have been reading all the news and articles recently about current things with the election and what happens overseas.
Its all very interesting....

 

It would never hurt to get a second opinion from Discount tire.


Hey let me know if/when you want to do this kind of stuff. It is all stuff I can help with unlike the electrical crap.

 

how much we talkin here.. im tryin to stay on a budget since it was all unexpected.

not sure. Jake(kyouto) knows. he just did his. if these things dont solve my issues.. CB will be my next thing to check.

thats what im thinking too. gonna stop by tomorrow.

thanks man.

on another note.. despite these little issues.. after picking up my truck from the dealer.. i still love my truck

after just a day of driving that little car around.. im definitely a truck person. lol

 

If you like to read try "No Easy Day" by Mark Owen. He was part of Seal team 6 on the Osama bin Laden mission. It just published a few weeks ago. Very interesting book.

 

How many miles on your truck?

You can have the rotors turned at most o'reily, vatozone or napa. Usually around 15 bucks a rotor. May not need new pads.

 

a tad over 36k. was thinking of getting them turned.. but thought if i just go all out.. it will eliminate the issues for sure.

whats everybody think?

 

If your rotors are warped at 36k I think you should stop driving it like a subi

 

well, i am the second owner.. so maybe it wasnt me.. BUT.. you may be right

 

Lol just giving you shit, driving in the mountains and getting them hot can do it. The pro's to turning are obviously cheaper, the con is you have to put the truck on jack stands while you wait for someone to turn them and if its a Saturday that could take a few hours

 

Wow! I have over 100k on my truck and just replaced pads at 106. Never turned rotors. It has been long traveled and on 35 since 40k miles.

 

My truck has 102k and still on stock front rotors, no turning. The rears had a shudder when I bought it at 60k so I replaced the rear drums and shoes along with front pads at that time.

Moose maybe do the rear drums and shoes first because brake drums will warp a lot easier. Its much easier for the rears to hang up or you leave the parking brake on and then they overheat quick

 

hmmm.. lots of options here. i dont think i want to get them resurfaced.. im thinking all new shiny brakes might help.. i feel as if it would have a better chance of eliminating my problems than resurfacing would.

thinking about just doing everything. pads, rotors, shoes and drums.

that along with possibly a CB drop.. but there are alot of mixed reviews on those.

and of course a road force. im hoping between all this stuff.. its will go away. lol

 

I have 117k with stock rotors stock drums and stock shoes.

 

Got my Tacomaworld sticker in the mail today!!!! WOOT!!
