Brakes all around!

I checked out napa for new rotors and pads. Total cost quoted is around $830 cdn. for better than factory parts. These parts are made by Dana. Anyone know if this is what I should choose or could I do much better? I do LOTS and LOTS of towing. I hear good stuff about powerslot rotors, and hawks pads. What do ya think?

Cryogenic Powerslot rotors and Hawk pads seem to be the preferred setup especially when towing. Check out the vendors on FTE and see what they can do for you price wise.

I like the powerslot rotors but I think EBC pads are much better than the hawk pads. EBC also makes rotors for the 4x4's and they are competitively priced, but the pads are pricey.

i just did the same brake job on my 01 f250 v10 and thats alot more than i payed for my stuff. I got all premium semi metallic and i cost me around 500. they are screwinmg you on the price. Napa has price brackets. People who walk in off the street get crazy high prices. I have ten trucks for my company and they know i spend alot of money so they give me good prices. For instance on of my rear rotors was supposed to be 149.99 i got it for 69.99. On the other hand i like the brakes so if you can get them cheaper napa has always pleased me
