Need a referral...What is the name and # of that Isuzu parts place frequently mentioed in posts ??? Begins with "Saint" something or another....Im having a little difficulty navigating the new site...no offense to the site builders its me. But anyway I have 88K miles on the pads now and figure its time!! Since I got such good service from the OEM's figure why change??

do not use any aftermarket pads... you save 5 bucks and then regret every time you touch the break pedal. A friend had BMW and decided to go cheap on pads - got all vibration and noise. Beamer was breaking down like Yugo :)
I've replaced pads at 30K (because I had bad dicks from day one and they coroded and caused uneven pad wear) so I've used Isuzu pads.

OEM VX pads are the best I've tried so far. Beats Axiss Ultimate, and Morse ceramic. I have a set of Mintex on order, we'll se how those are.

Do change the disks as well at your mileage, and plan on new wheel bearings as well.

No offense taken, theres a lot of changes and a LOT of information. If you are looking for a specific site, you could always check the Web Links (http://www.vehicross.info/modules.php?name=Links) section. Links are found on the Main Menu on the left of the Home Page and the forum pages if turned on. Down under the link post there is a "visit link" link or you can click on most banners.

Good luck
