Swapping Out Your Brake Pads — With RDA Goodness
> Your Toyota Chaser, Mark II, or Cressida relies on its brake pads, so keep 'em in good nick! Over time, they wear down, and that means less stopping power and maybe even damage to your rotors. Whether you're cruising around town or hitting the open road, you need brake pads you can rely on.
Uh Oh... Sounds Like You've Got These Symptoms
• Squealing like a pig when you hit the brakes
• Brakes not biting like they used to
• Taking longer to pull up
• Feeling a judder in the pedal
• Pads lookin' a bit sad (worn or damaged)
Will it pass WOF?
Worn-out brake pads are a surefire way to fail your WOF here in NZ. Your pads need enough meat on 'em to stop safely. Check the Land Transport NZ guidelines to be sure.

• Glove Up: Grab some heavy-duty Nitrile Gloves to keep your mitts clean and protected. Brake dust is not your friend.

🧰 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.
