Wondering if anyone has used those Detroit Axle ceramic pads and rotors for SD axles sold online?
They seem to be about 1/2 the cost for all four wheel rotors and pads.

Virginia... in the brambles
I would be skeptical with any ceramic rotors...no matter where they are made...

I did the rear brakes on the 'Girl Truck' (if you want a tirade on all of the 'inconvieniences' of the 'Girl Truck' then get me to start another thread...)

Anyway...I replaced the drums and shoes...the parts were from the same manufac----rebrander---and the drums and shoes have a slight dimensional discord...meaning...they scrape and make a grinding sound which made me have to take it back apart to show The Girl that nothing was really wrong and unless I took a grinder to it the noise would help anounce Her arrival...

So...that truck is marked for life as 'The Nag'...because it just will not shut up and leave me alone...

Freaking globalization....
