They had squeeling problems with the early RDA pads but I'm told they fixed that problem. I prefer Bendix though and I reckon the Bendix 4wd is a very good pad. Look at EBC pads if its within the budget though. The old man put a set in the front of the 80 and reckons they stop even better than Bendix 4wd.
