Do a web search for "Box Brakes". The guys name is Gary Box, and he mills solid brass pads that outlast originals times 3.

To late, I already orders the Severe Duty EBC's from Rocky Mnt. The pads on my 400EX are "shot". I think I'll need more than pads to go thru the mud that you guys love (like tires).
If Scott gets the 500, Dennis is gona be soooo jelous.
I sold my Blaster on Saturday. Now I just gut to get my 400EX back together.

stunz,like i said ebc will probably be fine for your type of riding..if dennis is that jealous he can always upgrade again ..for a while i didnt think he(scotty) was buying one and he came in to work this morning asking if i would go with him to look at a used s/p 2000 for 4700. w/400 miles on it at mirak..besides i want to look at the little 50 size quads for the future for my daughter,i know itll be another couple years but what the hell ill check em out..who knows maybe ill trade my quad for a new s/p 500 h.o.,or a scrambler 500 ? j/k, ill keep mine,havent ridden in about 6-7 wks,been working 7 days a week plus plowing..stunz if you havent seen it yet,theres pics of the quad with the new tires on it listed below..c`ya,mike
