I think the decision at the time was more that the pw spends more time on the asphalt vs the dirt so going to the expense of the yellow stuff at the time was not done. unfortunately its been a few months since the actual purchase vs the install so i dont quite remember the decision process at the time other than its better than the stock ones.

The rest of the install is done and the wagon seems to stop just a bit faster than before seems that the combination has a nice progressive slowdown and does not feel like it is fading and needing more peddel if the braking time is extended like say on a long off ramp. Just what i observed or think im seeing.

Maintenance. Oil change and filter, grease the ball joints, grease the front drive shaft, grease the trackbar, grease the RCV axle joints, rotate tires, check air pressure in them, check the PW all over. Get some ideas for the furture. :D
