I have 156k on my stock brakes and clutch, upgraded the wheel cylinders about a year ago, it does help alot. Will probably go back with stock pads and shoes soon. It is getting about time for them now that winter is coming on and that is usually when my truck wants me to work on it.

Slotted rotors are great for sports cars. If you're driving your truck sensibly and have an e-brake while towing you don't need them.

The good thing about the Powerslot rotors, is that when the slots no longer show, the rotor is at the minimum thickness. It's easy to tell.
