what kind of brake pads and shoes should i put on my truck? my front brakes are starting to squeak bad and sound like they need to be replaced. but i only want to do my front ones since my drums are more complicated. i want metallic pads since ill be getting rid of my truck soon.
 
How long have the Pads lasted that you now have?
Stick to a name brand not Discount Auto Parts.
There are some that wear less but they require more pressure to stop.
 
i dont know how long ive had them on i havent replaced them before. but they are squeaking bad. i think ill go with metallic pads instead of ceramic.
 
well i took the truck to shop today to look at the brakes. when i took off my left rear drum half of the shoe snapped off. also one of the springs was broken. and my pads are really thin. i have a new pair of pads, a new pair of shoes, and a hardware kit for the rear waiting for me to install them on wednesday.
 
the brakes are all done and they feel great. it took me a while since i was fighting rust and i had to use some of my free time helping my teacher finish up some work in the shop.
