Jred Posted April 30, 2021 Report Posted April 30, 2021 Looking to see if I can find a clear answer from people experienced with the Turner brake conversion. My brakes are quite squeaky and I would like to start by replacing the pads. I saw that some stated early model S10 truck pads work and others mentioned pads from 70’s el Camino’s will work.
Avanti83 Posted April 30, 2021 Report Posted April 30, 2021 Try applying brake disc lube behind the pads and any sliding surface before you start throwing parts at it. Just ask at your FLAPS what they recommend. Friendly Local Auto Parts Store
64studeavanti Posted April 30, 2021 Report Posted April 30, 2021 There is also some anti rattle goop.

Still would be great to know for future references.
Jim78 Posted May 1, 2021 Report Posted May 1, 2021 If you go to Jim's web site, on page 4 of the instructions it lists the pads as GM #D154. http://www.turnerbrake.com/instructions.html These very common pads are readily available in many brands and compositions at your FLAPS.
Jred Posted May 2, 2021 Author Report Posted May 2, 2021 Thanks @Jim78. The site wasnt loading on phone, thought maybe it was dead. Clear as day on the computer.
