Got 4 new rotors and all brake pads for $500 for the '03 Cobra. Only problem with TR pads is the spring clips don't come with, and OF COURSE one of them broke when I pulled 'em off. Ford couldn't (wouldn't?) sell spring clips separate from an axle set of pads at $100! Solved that one at the local NAPA for $13. |

Premium pads. $140 Can or about $120 U.S. All the clip hardware seems to be included along with the anti-squeel stuff. The little square tool to rotate the rear pistons was about $20 Can. One thing that is odd is how small the pads are on one set. Tiny, actually. -Rich |

Next time I do brakes, which is probably every 30-35K judging by past and recent experience, I'm doing the calipers and lines as well. Let us know how those Monroe's work. The Hawk GPS are good but noisy. |
