Just had EBC brake pads installed.

Let us know how they work for you!

I just had the rotors changed by the dealer at 30k because of the recall. It's nice to get new rotors free!

I know my pads will be toast after Moab and the Summit!

No, I don't ride the brake... Much!

cheers,

dale

Why is the part number different for the TRD FJ? Do TRDs have different rotors?

Each part # fits both of the 2007 models, so I don't think it's a different part #

Thanks for the link Dale.

I don't think this fits my problem. I just started to get a squeak from the rear brake all the time. And I only have 34,000 miles. Oh well... lol

Only 34,000 miles ? You may be due for new rear brakes. Most Toyota SUVs are notorious for going through brakes quickly, and while better then their predecessors, it;s a good idea to keep a close watch on 'em.

I was the test vehicle for the EBC pads and rotors when the FJC was released, and I've been using them ever since. Hard braking is improved, there's no dust build-up, and they don't fade as fast on the trail. :rocker:

Nice to know. Thank you

very cool,let us know how you like them

Ya keep us posted I cant wait to install mine have the pad since 4 months but still have 1/4" on the oem. They just wont wear out.

So how did these end up working? I am needing some new pads and think these might be the ones.

Good timing on this, since I'm due for pads.

Just did my fronts with the standard Toyota ones.

What did you do about the rotors?

I still have over half left on my pads with 53,000 miles.

Well I guess that just solved my problem of what to get..... And they hold up good after romping in the mud?

Had them turned at the local Firestone Dealer (who is real close to the house.) Call around to see who does and their price.

If want supervision, :rofl: bwaaa haaa haa,, let me know.

Really, if would like some company when you do it, you know how to contact me.

At 59,100 miles I was finally due for brakes. I went with EBC Green Stuff pads and plan on going with the rotors in the future. For now it was enough to have my rotors turned.

I bought them here. Brake Pads Toyota 2007 FJ Cruiser - AutoPartsWarehouse.com

Not sure what you mean? I click the link and it goes through "clickserve" and then drops me off at the AutoPartsWarehouse, but not at the correct spot for FJCs. Maybe they changed the part number or something.
