I have a 2010 ford transit connect. Motorcraft has 3 different pad part numbers listed for this vehicle.
br970c - oriellys has this listed as organic but on rockauto, every other part number that ends with "c" is ceramic.
brf1378 - just says oe design
brf1378a - oe design / oe formula
Im running the br970c right now, they stop pretty well but not sure if they will last and not sure if they will groove the rotors at all. Depending on how they last and how the rotors hold up, I would consider buying the 970c's again, one of the other motorcraft pads or....the akebono pro act pads.
does anyone know the differences in these pads? I prefer a pad that has better initial bite. My van is loaded down and i drive a lot everyday. Good initial bite makes for easier driving.
Ive heard the pro acts were good but not sure if the initial bite is what i want.
Any input is appreciated.
