I would junk those front pads. I had a similiar problem when the guy sold me carbon ceramic pads for the front. I put them on and the truck would not stop. I took them off and returned them instantly. I then got the Performance Friction Carbon Metallic. Performance Friction Brakes The truck stops way better and that was when I had the rear drum. Every since switching over to the Blackbird disc, it made it that much better. I think the rotors and pads that came with the Blackbird kit are not the greatest. I already blued the rear rotors because I lost my trailer brakes in PA going downhill.

I will probably be switching over to the hydroboost in a few months, just need to finish a few open projects.
