I need a picture of what the brake pads should look like for my civic, I bought some and I want to make sure they're right before I start the job... Last time I changed them They gave me the wrong pads (at advance auto parts) and they kept saying they were right. I finally got the right ones (from o'riley's auto parts)... Now I have some Axxis ultimates, I just want to see if their the right ones.

If it's easier, they say D 1831 RU on the box....

Thanks a lot!

if u told them they were for a 2000 civic ex...it should be fine

 

ok, cool... Just trying to make sure.

 

When you take off the old pads match them up to the new ones. I just did brakes last weekend on my 98 eX and they gave me the wrong pads even though I specified what make/model/trim I had.

THere used to be 2 castings marked on teh caliper. not sure if that applies you your year.

 

That's why I was trying to find out before I do it, because I'm on a military base, and the only way to do it is rent a bay and pay for lift time, so if they don't fit, it'll be a waste of time and money.... can anyone take a pic of some old ones they took off or anything?

 

Do those look right? there the outer ones, since the inner ones have brackets i can't scan them....

Anyone know?!

Thanks!

 

why dont u just change ur brakes with the tire jack... its like a 15 min job... i mean those look about right... but still use a tire jack and you should be cool

 

B/C I live in the barracks on a Marine base, where regulations are strict. I have to go to the hobby shop to do any work on a car. I can't just do it in a parking lot. It's only like $5 for a day, but still...

 

Anyone else seen their pads? Do these look right? the other 2 have a little 1 inch bracket, but look the same...

 

They are correct

 

Awesome. Thanks.
