MI_Titan 01-18-2006, 11:36 AM Just wanted to know around how many miles you may of had on you truck before replacing your brake pads(not including the brake judder issue) for the first time.Thinking I will need to replace mine here shortly and also what pads did you decide to use? Thanks! :D got_titan 01-18-2006, 11:45 AM well this big of a truck i would starting looking at them about 35-40 thousand miles. just depends how you drive but this truck is heavy and i would say it will chew threw some pads. i think someone said they were at 45,000 miles and needed to replace thier brakes but i dont recall if it was 2 or 4wd. Karl 01-18-2006, 12:39 PM I performed the Brake Judder replacement at 38,000 miles and the pads still had over 70% meat left, so I dont think I'll be replacing these pads until well over 100,000 miles. I drive fast but, I let off the accelerator way before I have to stop, for minimal brake use! Just my .02 But for Brake pad suggestions I would recommend Brembo brake pads, Make sure there ceramic coated! hpd 01-18-2006, 02:26 PM all depends on ur drivin habbits.... MI_Titan 01-18-2006, 07:24 PM Well they are getting noisy at stops and I have 19,000 miles on her and the brake judder issue taken care of at about 800 miles. So not sure what the deal is............ any ideas? I do tow an Argo, but I don't think that would have put that much extra abuse on the brakes.

Pull off the wheel and use a paper clip to unclog the nozzle. Since I drive in a lot of mud I had to put a screen over mine. Hope this helps. MI_Titan 01-20-2006, 10:50 AM Thanks SQUID I will try this.......... but what does the nozzle for the brake pad lube look like and where on the brake is it located?
