Does anyone know if Bendix make Ultimate pads for the KJ AWD brake setup? I was at bursons and it is not listed but the guy thinks it might be same as Pajero.
Does anyone know the part numbers for these pads?

Thanks.

stay away from them they are crap plus the amount of brake dust that comes of these pad you will need to clean your wheels every 3 to 4 days and if you dont it gets caked on and its hard to come off id go for something differant but thats my 2 cents see what other people say and take it from there :D

I agree - i got Bendix Ultimates and wasnt overally impressed with them - and the amount of brake dust is crazy! - real pain in the ass wen you have hard to clean rims! Ive heard good things about the EBC Greenstuff pads - mebbe look into them also

I put on Bendix advance, they are really dusty.

I was told that these were good enough on my car, and that Ultimates have more metal in them and require time to heat up.

Is that true?

If was planning on keeping the car for a longer time I would changes brands etc, but I will do this when I upgrade cars. To a verada Xi '99.

Yes it is true they are alot better once warmed up, with good pedal feel and minimal fade under constant use. they are also very hard on your rotors.
They aren't what i'd put back on as the dust was too excessive and I would look towards ebc greenstuff also as a suitable pad replacement.

I currently have Ultimates in my KH and love them. They feel like normal pads but with much more bite. I havent found that they have to warm up before they work properly. They are fine from go, just dont fade or warp the discs when pushed hard. I dont mind the dust as a trade off for good brake pads which the magna's need because their brakes are so undersized.

Was just wondering if they were avaliable in the AWD setup.
