    Hi Brett,

    I got a lot of stuff from Paddocks in the UK earlier in the year including Mintex front pads. 6.85 British pounds for the full front set.........$16 odd Au?

    Worth doing if you need other stuff. Good stopping power and feel from these pads.

    Brake pad come in diffrent hardness for a better word, stanard pads are good for around town and black top use. 4x4 pads are harder for dust dirt "ect" .price wise i brought a set of bendix standards for $40 last year fitted it myself easy to do if calipers are not siezed.

    Don't need anything else at this stage so probably cheaper to buy around here

    Also check the temperature ratings on them to help select fade free pads.
