I've been using EBC for decades on bikes, quads, and now SXS's, and I'm a firm believer in their quality. If you're in the mud a lot, you'll probably want the SV (severe duty) pads that are made from sintered copper alloy.
Brake Pads
I need to replace the brake pads on my Ranger. What would be the best ones for South Arkansas mud?

That is the way to go..........

How can one tell if new pads are required?
Best way is to inspect them. Remove tire and there is only 2 bolts holding the caliper on.How can one tell if new pads are required?
As rediculous as it sounds, I started using brake pads off amazon, the cheaper ones, they hold up great in the mud. They aren't ebc brakes but they are severe duty pads. Only $50 for all for tires.
Yep, I put on Sintered Pads off of EBAY and they hold up very well. ABOUT $ 50.00 for all four cornersAs rediculous as it sounds, I started using brake pads off amazon, the cheaper ones, they hold up great in the mud. They aren't ebc brakes but they are severe duty pads. Only $50 for all for tires.
Ya know what grinds my gears the most about buggy brake pads?...they're paper thin and cost a retarted price...hell, most of us can buy Automobile brake pads (whole way around, all 4 wheels) for less than we can buy these... Someone needs to come up with automobile sized brakes for these things! lol
I agree, but the pistons are so short that there's not very much travel to allow a pad much thicker. It really needs a complete caliper redesign in order to make thicker pads work........ Someone needs to come up with automobile sized brakes for these things! lol
yah....so someone needs to get cracking!!! lolI agree, but the pistons are so short that there's not very much travel to allow a pad much thicker. It really needs a complete caliper redesign in order to make thicker pads work.
