Brake job too now
I appreciate the help I went to rock auto I got the ball joints and now I decided to do the front brakes on it . I wanna do the pads and rotors. I was gonna do the whole caliper brake kit but there out what kind of pads and rotors should I order from there. There's so much to choose from. And my car is a regular daily driver no upgrades that I know of. I want to get good parts that last so if any experience with theese parts will help decide ty.

Front Brakes
I don't remember how long it took to change the Ball Joints -- I replaced the entire front suspension, and it took a while. ;>
Regarding the Front Brakes -- The high-performance brake parts I used on the famous 95 MERC are no longer available.
For your Daily Driver, avoid the "Economy" choices -- and avoid the CENTRIC brand -- a Centric Brake Hose FAILED -- SCARY !!
I suggest using MOTORCRAFT Brake Pads (if you can find them) -- Best chance is RockAuto or E-bay.
Good luck !!
Right Front Brakes - ACDelco Drilled & Slotted Rotors; Eclipse Calipers; Police Pads; ESI-6 Brake Fluid; Raybestos Hoses.
