Just need a quick answer before I go and buy somee pads in the morning...
Recommendations.... Bendix or Ferrodo???
I was leaning towards the Bendix pads but the brake shop reckons Ferrodo are better.... but that's the brand they sell, so I'm not too sure..

ive used ferodo 2 times now on 2 different cars an neither of them fit the calliper correctly and made horrible noises. they also both suffered brake fade. every other pad ive used has been bendix and never a problem, except the hard ones eat ya rotors............. they work well tho

I had Ferodo performance pads on my old car, and the dust created by them was insane... went back to Bendix to save cleaning my mags everyday

And the Bendix worked just as good if not better.
I use Bendix 4WD pads now, and am quite happy.... why not use EBC?

The new ferodo pads are a lot better than previous lines i would recommend them in any sedan but in a 4wd i would go the bendix 4wd pads they all have the titanium strip now so no pissin around just whack em in an drive. have sold 100s of sets at work now and not 1 complaint

The EBC 6000 series 4x4 greenstuff pads are pretty bad in performance and fade. The 2000 series greenstuff pads are excellent though - but thats if there are any left in Aus, with none on the horizen.

lucas make a very good pad, they're a bit dusty but pull up very well.
ive had problems with 3 sets of bendix pads choping up the rotors
