I have ausco HDs in the back on mine. I like them, but tbey squeel even more then the regular ones in my opinion. I clean then lube them, they are quiet for a few days, then back to squealing. I have worn them about half way, when i get new pads, i will get the regular ones. I will also get new cables, i have noticed that they are quite sensitive to cable condition (free sliding), and mine are original.

Cgtech do you have a generic distance the ausco pads or Jakes hydraulic pads last. I have 3000 miles on original pads, still stops well, just not sure when to change them. I'm pretty satisfied with mine too. Gorno please jump in if you or a anyone has some info on this.

I have no odometer on my cart and could only guess on my mileage, probably about 500 miles/year. It's only been just over one year for me.

Thanks Gorno, its pretty warm here in north fl. I ride all year even tonight in the 40's still made it for coffee after work. Lots of fun miles better then my truck.

The kit I bought from ScottyB was easy to install and I am completely satisfied with it. No squeek and solid stopping power.

If it werent for the major increase in stopping power with reduced pedal effort, i would go back to my old drums. As many would agree (and some disagree) the stock drums suck compared to stopping power of disks. I think price vs performance, auscos are the way to go, i have installed jakes disks, i think if i had spent $600 on them i would be asking for my money back, im not saying they suck, but at $600 i would expect something a little less "hokey" where it attaches to the pedal group.
