    Hey James: I would go with the OEM pads, the price is aittle more but will last and last ( replaced my original set at almost 100k, and replaced w/OEM's ) and the best thing...NO BRAKE DUST ! !

    Call Merlin at ST.Charles Isuzu

    Concensus is that OEMs are the best.

    Pads

    Guys,

    Former Isuzu dealer here is offering ceramic or metallic pads that seems to supply thru GM Canada.

    OEM pads are listing at CDN $290 for the front!

    I will call Merlin!

    Merlin Magic

    Merlin say fronts are USD 117, rears USD 93.

    Canadian dealer says fronts are CDN $298.

    Merlin gets my money and UPS gets to ship with no cost to me to my closest border point UPS Store (45 minute drive).

    My apologies for "thread jacking".
