I've got about 83k miles on the odometer. When should replace the pads? I've heard of them lasting well over 100k.

I have 165K on mine and have never done them... most of mine are highway miles and who needs brakes when you have train horns??? :D :D :D
Hell, I got over 60K on my last set of Toyo M/T's... there was still plenty of meat on the pads when they were doing the tires.
I have 132,000 on mine and there is plenty of pad left.

I just got about 46k out of my last set of Toyo M/Ts and they were bald! My first set lived to about 37k but I rarley rotated them and drove like an asshole and performed several burnouts after I tuned the truck. :)
OK. I'm convinced! Whoo hoo. I'd rather spend the money on beer!Quote:

My dad ran about 160K before changing his on his 1500.
Wes Wise (friend os Dave Sammons) has 320K on a Duramax with factory pads.....................
I had 135k and I changed mine and the new pads were the same as the old. I couldn't believe it. I changed them any way....
Maybe it's just a crazy idea, but I would change them when they wear out.

I've got 120,000 on my 02 2500. A lot of boat towing and used to have a 3000lbs camper and still stops on a dime.
Wonder how ford brakes holdup?:beaten:
Pretty well actually! Hard to burn up brakes when the truck is broken. Now tailgate handwarmers on the other hand... :DQuote:
