hi, pads are down to the backing and n/s disc is "warped" i was going to replace them with a set off ebay for £16.00 the lot, bangernomics practiced here,should it be a safety issue or is it worth paying top dollar for ford parts?
|
|
I'd say pay middle dollar for OEM parts from a motor factor - likely only a few pounds more for peace of mind.
|
discs are £6.99
pads are £9.47
at my factor plus vat
armed with this information try yours
after the ebay clutch fiasco would you source from a distance seller
well will you punk ;-)

How much is your and your families' life worth?

so what your saying is thousands of people are dying every day because they drive around in pattern parts?...now that DOES sound stupid..der

Pattern parts will work fine, but as the cost is so low, for £50 you can get a top make. It is all about stopping 4 yards shorter, and a really good bite and feel to the peddle.
Top brakes last longer, bed in quicker, and are not spongy.

Milkyjoe, you ask a question, when you get an answer you are sacastic. Der.
If you want to get dodgy parts and fit them I couldn't care less. I just hope you don't run into me.
|
to be fair i think dodgy is the wrong word
more not best quality i prefer
i still recommend cheapest factor new on an old festa though
|
Yes, I certainly wouldn't be going to the dealer to buy Ford parts for this application.
I would be fitting some decent Mintex pads, and some decent branded disks (possibly Lucas?) from the factors.

You personally weren't being referred to as being stupid. Your comment "should it be a safety issue" was considered by one member to be a stupid question. Your sarcastic reply on the other hand......
....two wrongs don't make a right.
Now enough of the slanging match, before I have to take my scissors to this thread and start snipping.
