[QUOTE="INW-Iron-Steel, post: 21565, member: 11733"] People have their own experiences, but I haven't had any good experiences with detroit axle parts. I had some hubs from them on my GMT400 suburban that didn't even last a year. The chrome lung nuts I bought from them to go with the new 18s (post 17) looked worse after one year than the chrome lung nuts that were with the 17s for like 7-8 years. The chrome on the detroit axle ones are peeling to the point that if I don't use gloves while handling them I slice my hands up. The TRW metallics have been money on the GMT400. Only pads I've had recently on it that don't chew up rotors, make horrendous noises, or dust like crazy. I was so happy with them I ordered up a box for the 800! They sell them on that jungle website with prime shipping. Made by ZF Group, a respected OE supplier. I consider the brakes on my vehicles to be one of the most important items. I am not one to shy away from saving a buck here and there with cheap, questionable quality parts. But not on brakes. They're way too important to risk subpar quality. [/QUOTE]
