I could not get the rear pads to fit, so am out the cost of the failed install and rear pads. The manufacturing error is less laughable than what I was told on the phone - we did that on purpose because we couldn't replicate the stock pad.

Summary: old school bus, hard braky no worky, now quiet, expensive ugly paper weights.
It's just completely absurd to sell incorrectly manufactured rear pads.

Without responding to anyone individually I'm glad everyone is able to share their positive experiences. It is however, admittedly, annoying to see several members proselytize this company considering the obvious problems myself and others have had with improperly manufactured parts and no real resolution.

I am literally starting to feel compelled to warn people about purchasing products from this company…
