brake pads

Need suggestions for front brake pads on a 77 1/2 ton. I had really good braking with NAPA drilled and slotted rotors, semi metallic pads and dot 5 fluid. I had to replace the pads with some I'd had laying around. Also turned the rotors and replace the hoses with braided. After bleeding and break in it wont lock up the front brakes anymore.

All I can think of is the old pads aren't working well.
