Brakes Question

So I am wondering what kind of brake pads yall are using on your trucks, i recently as in like 2 months ago swapped out the brake pads and they are already sqealing and chopping when i hit the brakes....i bought the thermo quiet brake pads from AutoZone and needless to say im not happy with them.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Motorcraft PREMIUM pads. Stop great, no dust, no squealing, and very long life.

Hawk pads. No dust or squeling and the braking performance is awesome compared to OEM pads. Had mine on the X for 60,000 miles and still good. Will be more expensive then OEM pads.

I'm running hawk pads all the way around and Powerslot Cryo rotors on the front. Worth every dime.
