brake pads for 95 960

posted by  someone claiming to be shade tree mechanic on  Sun Apr 13 09:39 CST 2003 [RELATED]

We need to replace the front pads on our 95 960, and would like to know if there are any good altenatives to Volvo pads for wear, low brake dust and noise. We have used volvo pads, but found they leave a lot of dust on the calipers and linkages, an we had to grind them to keep them from squealing. Haven't done 960 front pads before, but did on my other cars. Any tips?

    Here is my answer to your earlier email about brake pads:

    I use the PBR/Axxis Deluxe brake pads all around on my 960. I like them; minimal brake dust, good stopping power, last fairly long. Fcp groton has them:

    088-1456D Front Brake Pad Set 91-97 models w/ABS + Girling Front Calipers $28.00 PBR/Axxis Deluxe

    IPD has them with a picture: http://www.ipdusa.com/ProductsList.aspx?subSubCategoryID=293

    Hope this helps.
