  • Perfect Fit on 1999 Toyota 4runner
Size: One Size Style: EHT436AH
I read the reviews & the positive feedback was the deciding factor on these brakes. I had to replace my 4Runner front brakes as I noticed longer braking from a distance & having some vibration at a complete stop. Upon further inspection the brakes on the driver side had a broken retainer clip barely holding on & causing the loose play when coming to a stop. The original brakes were almost at the end of their life as some of the brake pads had gaps in them starting to desenagrate with lots of brake dust on the brake caliper. I assume these are are organic brakes pads that produce alot of brake dust replaced by my auto mechanic two years ago. I wanted to replace my brakes with ceramic pads since they are more durable, have more stopping power, & produce less brake dust. These are cheaper than buying from a retail store & glad they came with replacement brake retainer clips & clips to hold in the brake rods, because my broke & would have to go buy them at the auto parts store. I did the replacement myself, you can learn from YouTube videos if you need help & the tools needed. Overall I am very pleased of the quality & value of the these brake pads & saved me money from having to go to a auto mechanic. ... show more

  • Poor product identification
Size: One Size Style: EHT1001
Raybestos website is down. The model number EHT1001 is nowhere written on the brake pads. How am I supposed to verify that they are the right part when the box seems to have been opened before. What is on the brake pad cover is " Element 3, BPI-EHT7-GH N25 and 042225Q" - see images Also hardware (springs) not included. They seem to be the right size, when compared on another website. (inner and out pads are the same) Pad Height 3.040 inches Pad Overall Thickness 0.200 inches Inner Pad Width 5.190 inches I think they should fit. Will update the review 3/11/26 - update - working great. ... show more

  • If the pad fits!
Size: One Size Style: EHT976H
Normally I'm a pretty avid Akebono user, as those are the pads that typically installed in a vehicle from factory and always performed consistently with superb mileage to dollar spent, however, I bought these Raysbestos by mistake and ended up keeping them as a back up. Well, being in a pinch and short on pennies, which were used for the rotors, I'm glad I had these to fall back on. I paired the Element 3's with Centric Premium Rotors on my Tundra and wouldn't you know it? The darned thing stops. Quietly, I might add, along with more linear feedback in the ABS than the Akebono provided which is actually quite comforting. I made sure to bed them as correctly as I could given the hot Southwestern environment I live in, but so far, with 500 miles in on them, they seem to be making themselves at home. Time will tell, as I expect warped rotors and shortened pad life long term, but so far, they stop just as quiet as the AKEBONO, and have a bit more bite, which is comforting considering these trucks are known for having crummy braking (warping, overheating, fade, etc). However, mileage is what will really set the tone here as my Akebono gave me 70'000 hard miles in the mountains, off road, stop and go, highway, and towing. If I get 40'000 out of these, I'll consider the savings a good investment. I'm impressed thus far as I've never used Raysbestos before, but they come with ample stopping power, they are a good snug fit in the calipers, and are very quiet for the Semi-Metallic/Ceramic hybrid material. New slide pins would've been a welcome bonus, but no brake pad manufacturers provide those in the package as far as I know. But the retainer clip is also snug and everything went together nicely, providing shorter stops, smooth braking, and peace of mind. So far the savings are making themselves known. Update:: after about 1000 miles, let me say that these have a monumental bite compared to the Akebono. I'm very impressed with how smooth the braking is with these pads. I'll get some squeak here and there, but nothing intrusive or off putting. Just hot brakes in 110° ambient weather, which Akebono didn't so much as peep until they reached squealer tabs, but that's neither here nor there considering the improved bite. Just keep in mind, the rotors are just as important as the pads. So this makes for a good pair thus far. 3000 Miles in, and we've driven loaded down across the state for a camping trip through canyons mountains and steep hill 7% grade climbs and descents with enough switchbacks to make you vomit. And as an added caveat, we were forced to tow our other vehicle through said canyon and mountain. The Raysbestos and Centric Rotor pairing is holding up very nicely. Good ample stopping, obviously the trailer had brakes to assist, but for a truck with no tow brakes going through mountains and steep descents in 110° weather, they held up beautifully. ... show more
