I need to replace my break...3 amigos have been going on and off but now are staying on...I have two NEW hubs and sensors in the fron so I don't htink it's those.

Last time I did brakes (about a year and a half ago) I bought the cheapest I could find at the time. My wheels are COVERED in dust, and the fronts are warped bad.

Looking at purchasing these off of ebay.

THoughts?

LAND ROVER DISCOVERY (2) 99 01 02 03 F/R ROTORS CERAMIC | eBay

 

Those are also junk. They don't even mention what brand are they and are to cheap to be any good. You need Akebono ceramic pads and DBA or EBC rotors if not you are going to be in the same boat that you are in now.

 

like these?

EBC 3GD Ft Brake Rotors Land Rover DISCOVERY GD994 | eBay

AKEBONO EUR676 Brake Pad or Shoe, Front | eBay

 

Correct. I went with the smooth EBC rotors, they are cheaper and wear the pads less. The EBC are not as good as the DBA but are cheaper and still really good. The cheapest place that I know of is Place for Brakes. Check them out and compare prices, I am sure that they are going to be the cheapest.

 

I hace EBC rotorsw and pads, at the same time I rebuilt my calipers, and replaced the bolts, and I replaced the shuttle valve as I had to bleed my brakes.Remember you pay for what u get.

Just bought front EBC rotors and pads from Place for Brakes for $150.00. Can't by the cheapest one from any local autoparts store for this price.

 

I have close to 30,000 miles on DBA rotors on all 4 wheels with LR pads. Still stop well and I would not consider myself a heavy braker. I'm guessing the LR pads are ceramic.
I've always though you get what you pay for. I did all the work myself. And I think it was still over $300 installed.

 

I am very happy with my set of EBCs in the rear. Would definitely buy another set.

 

AKEBONO EURO Brake PadS

 

I run Alabono pads, have for about a year now, on 100,000 mile old DBA rotors and boy do they stop well, plus no dust, squeaking or 3 amigos.
