Two questions:
Will larger aftermarket breaks increase break life (i'm pretty sure they would increase breaking power)?
Does anyone have any recommendations for after market breaks or websites where I can get breaks for my 03 Montero?
Any information is very much appreciated!

PS - i love my monty
I assume that you are planning to increase rotor size as well.
A few sites of interest are:
autopartswarehouse.com
tirerack.com
ebcbrakes.com
My wife's 04 received new brake pads last month with 30K on the odometer. I had the work done a local shop and had the pads upgraded to a "lifetime ceramic pad" because of how quickly the Monty eats them. Basically, they replace the pads for the life of the vehicle at no additional charge. Of course, I'll have to pay for having the rotors resurfaced (or replaced) when needed.
good luck
thanks
dealer wants 950.00
Also, the switch looks like one block, do I have to replace the whole block? Where is best place to get one? Thanks!
Called mitsubishi and they said to get the serial and part # on the back of radio.
Does anyone know how to get the radio/cd player out of the 01 montero sport.
I am not a mechanic and dont want to screw it up as my wife drives it and she has been without music for 2 weeks
Not good in Nashville.

The grinding noise on the front wheel could be a disc brake issue or front axle hub bearing.
Some radio codes are on top of the radio, and can be seen by removing the fascia trim (aka bezel) surrounding the radio - often you can read the number without having to pull the radio out at all. Usually the surrounds pop off with a butter knife and removing some screws from the fascia.

Any assitance would be greatly appreciated.
Rattling noise - sounds like you need to open the hood a take a peek.
Grinding noise - transmission problems, a fluid change might fix it, but I doubt it. Any transmission shop will usually provide you with a free estimate after they test drive it.
can anyone recommend a repair manual that will show how to do "simple" task such as this?
