Short review on the recommended autozone brake pads

I used the autozone lifetime free replacement pads a few guys on here recommended. They stop good and last well. I had them on a year and swapped them all out with no apparent damage to my rotors or arguments from autozone. The one caliper I didnt rebuild last time started to stick so one pad was worn more than the other. This was the main reason for the swap out. I decided to just buy the $30 pre rebuilt caliper this time. They would have lasted longer if I didnt have a malfunction. Thanks for the recommendation y'all.

Im not sure which they are. I believe they were in a red and blue duralast box. Free replacement as long as they are not down to the metal

I've had good luck with their pads for other vehicles. Any luck with them while towing?

I do more payload hauling than trailer these days so I am not sure how they would perform under heavy trailer conditions. I think they would perform well since they stop my truck good and are not quick to ware away.

I believe the warranty is regardless of time or miles. Definitely check though.

Been using them for years. They last well when hauling a trailer 25K ayear like me. The lifetime warranty is good. I have replaced a lot of pads and shocks with it. They wonder when I'll sell that **** truck!

So they offer the same deal on shocks?

I ordered bilstein shocks from them in 08 and they had a lifetime. Best move I ever made.
