  1. A quality muffler shouldnt produce drone. As long as you have it exit from the vehicle. A turn down where it exits under the vehicle will produce more drone though.

    When I had my 01 Z28 and true duals that dumped under the car. Whew, that was some drone! But was running Moroso Spiral flows.

  2. Fronts are Wagner 90% left on pads, Rotor damn near look new. Couldnt read part number for the wagners on the fronts.

    Rears are OEM Nissan shoes. Drums internally again, look new. So pads and rotors are 4.0. But I still need to bleed the brakes. I'll check back once that is done.

  3. Today, I had to run to the store to get a bag of ice. As I'm going down the street by the house, doing 30mph a cross traffic SUV ran a stop sign. On the horn, on the brakes. When on the brakes, I mean ON the brakes. Tools and everything in the back slid forward against the seats. Stuff went flying and I thought I was going to hit the stupid person. During this time, I thought: Where the F is my ABS? It didnt kick in, at all. Truck is full laden, 1/2 tank, 300lbs of tools in the back hatch plus a Craftman 300 piece toolbox in the back seat drivers side. Which did fly and hit the back of the seat.

    My front pads are close to 70%+ left, rotors are very good condition. Pads are OEM type, have Nissan stamp on the. No clue how long they have been on either. Rears, really have no clue. I havent popped off the drums in over 2yrs.

     

    Did the tires at any point lock up? No. Which WAS nice, a controlled stop. However I feel the brakes should have been a little better. I have not bleed my brakes since I have gotten the truck. (2yrs). Fluid is nice clear clean fluid up top. But thats just there, who knows what it looks like in the lines. I will bleed the brakes tomorrow, plus pull the drums.

     

    For those that have had to use the brakes hard, have you noticed your ABS? Does it kick in easy for you or are yours the same, not kicking in?

     

    Any suggestions? I feel the braking power is severely lacking right now.

  4. Isnt this the second one in recent times up in WA?

    Tell the police and get help to check all the chop shop wrecking yards. IIRC the other hardbody was found very close to some shady yards.

    If they saw you load the stuff and took it in that small time frame, then they are most likely local.

     

    Hope you find it soon and in one piece.
