Default Brake products

Where do you suggest purchasing brake pads and rotors from. I see Canadian tire has a sale on but I’m not sure if they sell for a one ton

I've always found better product and prices online. Just have to do a little googling. Check reviews and what not before ordering

You did not say what make. There are cheap ones but you get what you pay for. 1ton not small truck and tend to tow big trailers Go for quality brand names only. If it’s a ford check there price they are reasonable

3rd time is the charm for RockAuto. I've done the brakes on two vehicles with parts from them. There's mixed blessings that the rears on my Savana 2500 never got installed as the engine went before I installed them! The blessing is that at least I didn't waste a pile of time installing them just briefly before the vehicle died, now I have brand new drums and shoes destined for Kijiji.

Try these guys:
https://www.partsking.ca/default.aspx

Their prices and business model are similar to Rockauto, except you order online and pickup at their store location. Do not go to the store, they do not have stock. Order online at it will be there within 45 mins.
Easy returns as well or core exchanges. No shipping.
I have used these guys for a few different parts.
