nice shock and rotor combo

I for the season wanted to have the TV in to have the fluids serviced (all of them). While there I knew the front end needed work lots and lots money later the ball joints and sway bar end links and the sway bar bushings were replaced.

The shocks were gone as well that I knew no biggie. The front rotors were warped again no biggie, shocks and rotors I can do with not too much problem.

In doing home work I found folks liked The Rancho and Bilstein and I chose Bilstein and love them. The Brakes were a little harder so after looking and looking I came cross a company EBC for the dimpled and slotted rotors and the Yellow stuff pad.

After bedding in the rotors and pads the truck stopped like it was on a dime. They are very expensive but well worth it. I hope in the next month the change the rear rotors and pads. If you find your self looking at a new set of brakes check out EBC and shocks from Bilstein.

Thumbs up ebc yellow stuff on order

I just ordered the EBC Yellow stuff pads for all 4 corners and the GD series slotted & dimpled rotors for the front of my '04 Ex. I was wondering what you noticed when changing to the Billstein shocks. I still have stock shocks all the way around.

Thanks,

Derek
