Ceramic vs Semi-Metallic — Which Should You Choose?
We stock both pad types for the F-150. Here is how to decide:
| Ceramic Pads | Quieter, less dust, better for daily driving and light towing. Longer pad life. |
| Semi-Metallic Pads | Better heat dissipation, stronger bite. Recommended if you tow regularly or drive in mountains. |
| Recommended For Daily Use | Ceramic |
| Recommended For Towing / Heavy Use | Semi-Metallic |

Signs Your Ford F-150 Front Brake Pads Need Replacing
- Squealing or screeching noise every time you brake — the wear indicator is contacting the rotor
- Grinding metallic sound — pads are completely worn, metal on metal
- Vehicle pulls to the left or right when braking
- Longer stopping distances than usual
- Brake pedal feels spongy or vibrates underfoot
- Visible pad thickness less than 3mm through the wheel spokes
Installation Notes
Front brake pad replacement on the F-150 is a straightforward job for anyone with basic tools. You will need a floor jack, jack stands, a C-clamp or brake caliper piston tool, and a torque wrench. Always:
- Replace pads on BOTH sides of the front axle at the same time — never just one side
- Compress the caliper piston fully before inserting new pads
- Torque caliper bolts to manufacturer spec (typically 25–30 ft-lb for the F-150)
- Bed in new pads with 8–10 moderate stops from 50 km/h before hard braking
