Brake pads Bendix or Duralast

I put Duralast gold's on all my vehicles. Got a good warranty and come with all clips and brake grease you need. They're ceramic also, so quieter and more smooth braking and significantly less brake dust. Last quite awhile (1-2 years) as long as your not heavy braking all the time. And they're not too expensive either, moderately priced. Plus a bonus, they're black and match my paint.

Autozone's Duralast Gold pads and rotors will run you about $300 for the set. They work very nicely. If you're even moderately handy or have a friend with the tools, it's less than 2 hours of work. If you have a decent setup with a lift, it's more like 45 minutes of work. $600 for labor is HIGH AF. This truck is the easiest brake job I've ever done.

I replaced the front pads with some bendix 4wd pads and machined the rotors, was a noticeable improvement straight away. I also flushed the brake fluid at the same time.

I just did my Rotors and brakes on my 2nd Gen 2005 and used Bendix Rotors PRT5716 for rears and PRT5675 for front. As for pads I used their Premium Copper free CFC1100 and it major difference in stopping feels like its brand new again. Also pads I did before I hated they were Wagner Ceramic Thermo quiet pads and they squeaked non stop min put them in it drove me nuts I got money use out of them and used them till I couldn't take squeaking anymore LOL

Bendix pads are very good. I haven't tried their rotors, but I wouldn't hesitate next time I have to change out.

Wanted brakes for the same car? Ordered Bendix. Bendix has been Ford's brake OEM for decades now.

I use Bendix ultra premium /ceramic pads and I've been quite happy with them

I'd avoid the cheaper duralast stuff but the gold is usually OK.

I had bendix on my cars before, the gen CT and metal king has too much metal components, hence its noisy and scratches the rotors.

Oriellys generally carries good discount auto parts like wix, wearever brake pads. Buy duralast break pads and watch a hour and half job turn into a all day cussathon. One time before I knew better I forced a set on thinking "well that's how they came must be oem fit" they jammed and warped the rotor in 2 months. Replaced them again dads watching me struggle and cussing the world going for a hammer. Dad " WTH do you need a hammer for? Let me see them. He inspected them and came to the conclusion they were sloppily made. The slide ears were chunky globs of material that were slightly oversized and rounded instead of being straight contact surfaces. Only after carefully taking a dremel to them did they fit correctly.
