Big Bend brake suggestions

[Methodical9]

I have a 2025 sport big bend and I am going to have to replace my front brakes soon. After the issues I had trying to find an engine air filter that would actually fit and an oil filter that would actually fit that was not FRAM because of there bankruptcy I'm not sure I can trust parts stores for brakes or any parts since they all seem to be wrong for the 2025 model. For my engine air filter and the oil filter all stores websites said the one I bought would fit but of course they didn't, the air filter was to long and the threads on the oil filter were different.

If anyone has been having the same issues and has any suggestions that would be great thanks.

i replaced my rotors and pads with power stop because i wasn't happy with the factory equipment. Rock auto still has some product. i heard they were going out of business. they also have motorcraft rotors too.

Maybe something with RockAuto has changed ?

From what I saw recently, RockAuto is not going out of business

though it stopped shipping to Arizona due to a multi-year tax dispute

The Arizona Shipping Issue
The state of Arizona demanded approximately $11 million in back taxes and penalties, claiming that RockAuto had a "physical presence" because local distributors used their branded packaging materials and magnets. Instead of risking accidental tax miscalculations in a complex local tax environment, RockAuto made a business decision to cut ties with those Arizona distributors and completely stop shipping to the state.

I haven't replaced any air filter or cabin air filter yet but I did my oil change and used a Wix filter. Absolutely zero issues.

He is referring to a 25-26 year model. These use a different air filter and oil filter than the 21-24 models.

Power stop going out of business. My last post was phrased weird.

As for the oil filter why don't you use the Ford OEM filter? My dealer charges less than $10.00 for it. I haven't had to change the air filter yet so I don't know what the cost of that is. 2023 Heritage Edition

I installed powerstop front and rear rotors and pads on my ‘22 big bend. Work great and no backup squeaks so far. I got mine threw AutoZone, the cost was more but the total ended up being cheaper than if I got them threw rock auto due to the shipping cost.

I highly recommend Power Stop! Get rotors and pads.
