Hey guys, I sold the truck a few months ago and it was still rock solid at that point. The guy I sold it to uses it to tow his bass boat all over the country and is extremely happy with the truck.
Hey gang. I have a 2015 XL 4WD with standard suspension and 145K on the clock. I've been frustrated with how sloppy the handling has been, even with 5100s all the way around and 38psi in my tires. I recently went through the whole suspension and steering to see if anything was worn but didn't...
This "upgrade" definitely wasn't an improvement! The Bendix metallic pads have a great initial bite, so hopefully I get the performance I was looking for. After having a kid step out in front of my Sequoia (his hand was on my hood when I stopped), I want the best brakes possible for this heavy...
Finally a good update...I put Bendix pads in the truck tonight and so far it feels greatly improved! I'll do a break-in procedure tonight for a real comparison.
The "2nd generation" Powerstop pads don't have the tabs/ears. I wish I didn't toss the original pads because I could use them to test the theory...I think I'll grab a set of different metallic pads with the ears to see what happens.
Yep, I did all new fluid (probably about 3 gallons of new fluid during bleeding and flushing). Mine still goes right to the floor without delay, so putting some break-in miles and doing the break-in procedure a few times hasn't helped me like others have said it did for them.
I'm in the same boat. The pedal is still mushy and requires a lot more travel than it should (and will drop to the floor when pressed firmly) but the brakes do work so I've just been dealing with it. I will likely try to swap out more components in the future but don't want to deal with it...
