Description

Swapping Out Your Brake Pads — TRW Style
> Brake pads are what stop you from ending up in a ditch, so keeping them in tip-top shape is crucial. If you're hammering your Hilux or Pajero off-road or towing the boat, they'll wear out faster than you think.

Symptoms You've Got a Problem
• Brakes screeches like a banshee when you hit the pedal
• Braking feels like trying to stop a runaway train
• Pedal goes soft and squishy under your foot
• Pads look like they've been through a war
• Your ute pulls to one side when you brake

WOF Woes?
Worn brake pads are a surefire way to fail your WOF. They need to be thick enough to actually, you know, stop the car. Check the Land Transport NZ website for the official lowdown.

DIY or Hand it to a Pro?
Difficulty: 6/10
Estimated Time: 2-4 hours
Tools Required: Jack, jack stands, wrench set, socket set, brake cleaner, C-clamp or brake spreader, torque wrench

🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist
Alright, before you get cracking on those brakes, let's make sure you're sorted. Safety first, always! Chuck on some safety glasses to keep the brake dust out of your peepers and grab some nitrile gloves — brake dust is filthy stuff. A can of brake cleaner is your best mate for blasting away all that carbon dust. And don't forget a dab of [anti-seize caliper grease] on the right spots to keep things moving smoothly. Never get under a car supported only by a jack!

Expert Recommendation
Replacing your brake pads is a no-brainer for safe driving, especially if you're giving your Hilux or Pajero a hard time. Swing by Bob's Shop for a yarn about what's best for your ride!

Fitment Notes
Double-check these pads fit your exact year and model. Some models have different brake setups. Always compare them to your old pads before you start wrenching. Pay extra attention when fitting to Toyota Hilux and Mitsubishi Pajero models.

> If you're swapping out these parts on your vehicle;Pajero;Shogun, don't skimp on fresh rotors. Check out our compatible TRW Disc Brake Rotors (Part No. DF7061S) to ensure a perfect bed-in and get the job done properly first time!

🧰 What Else You'll Need:
• Safety First: Never work under a vehicle supported only by a jack. Always secure it on heavy-duty safety jack stands.
• Brake Dust Protection: Brakes get incredibly dirty. Keep a pack of Nitrile Gloves handy to protect your hands from stubborn brake dust.
• Clean and Prep: Use a high-quality Brake Cleaner spray to blast away stubborn dust, oil, and road grime from the caliper assembly and new rotors before reassembly.
• Lubrication: Apply a thin smear of high-temperature caliper grease to the pad backing plates and slide pins (keep it off the pad friction material!) to prevent squeals and ensure smooth caliper operation.
