Brake pads POWER STOP or OEM FORD
Powerstop Evolution from rockauto.com. As quiet and dust-free as OEM, but with a bit more stopping power. They’re also much cheaper than OEM.
I have personally used centric rotors and powers top ceramic brakes for years with no complaints.
In terms of driving impressions, well...it feels heavy and clumsy around town. The steering is very heavy...forget twirling the wheel with a finger. The shifter is mounted low and away. It takes effort to shift, and it's very solid and mechanical (rod shifter). The clutch is progressive but the friction point is not very obvious. Ride is quite good, and push through the clumsy feeling and she can dance. Brakes are hysterically soft, typical for a SHO.
I was still on the original pads/rotors when I sold it back in '04 and not a day goes by that I don't miss it.
