Brake pads EBC or POWER STOP
I have Speigler stainless lines, EBC pads, and Motion 5.1 fluid in mine.
He used Powerstop Z23 pads/Evolution Geomet Rotors I bought from Rock Auto (those were about $300 shipped). He even wiped down the inside of the wheel rims.
I did PowerStop drilled & slotted with ceramic pads. Fantastic upgrade. Lasted about 2 years until they got noisy as hell.
I would pick power stop at about $150 give or take - you are there with the labor time - put in the new parts
Powerstop Z23 works just fine. Z26 if you want low dust.
I went with a set of Powerstop brakes rear and front and ordered OEM brembos which should completely solve the shutter also improving stability when braking. Will update this
I ran the Ford Severe Duty pads, and now the Power Stop Z36. The Severe Duty pads performed great but had a LOT of brake dust. They are semi metallic so should be higher performance at the cost of brake dust and pad/rotor life. The Power Stop pads feel like they perform just as good (towing) and have almost no brake dust, and seem to be long lasting so I'd recommend them.
For road course, EBC yellows will be OK for beginning, but won’t last more then 3 or 4 days as you progress
The Power Stop pads do have the end clips but they are moving in the calipers a little. After following the break in instructions that include hard braking the metal sound pad on the outside of the pad slid up and wrecked it somewhat.
I am on their RP-1 pads but I get terrible vibrations after they get heated. I suspect its because I didnt change rotors from my previous pads. I just thought they'd be rebedded after a few hard stops with the new pads.
