I know this is OT but this IS my tractor hauler so it is somewhat related. I've been figuring that my truck (2000 Silverado 4x4) will be due for fresh brakes for sometime now and today I got down and checked them out. Rears should be fine till spring but the pads on the front are down to about 3/16" so I'm thinking I should get a new set on there next chance I get. I'm curious about your guys opinions on the best brake parts, I've always had good luck with napa and they seem to be high quality parts. The braking power has never really been what I thought it should ever since I got. I mean I've driven a few other trucks bigger than mine and the would stop better. I may replace the calipers as well to see if that will help. So in a nut shell are there any pads and rotors that perform better than others? And is there anything else I should look at performance wise as far as brakes go? Thanks in advance. Mike
