[QUOTE=msprinkle;177849]Hello everyone in Jayco land!
I have a question about rear brakes on my tow vehicle. I just replaced my brake pads and rotors because I the rear driver side was making a grinding sound and I noticed that the rotor was scorn. Once I got the tire off and the pads out I noticed that the pad with without the wear indicator was at fault. It wore faster than the pad with the indicator, thus damaging my rotor. I tow with a Honda Ridgeline which has 65,000 miles on it and I assumed that since I was towing a trailer (FeatherLite x20e) that the brakes wore faster then normal. Both rear pads were completely gone. I was a bit surprised when I got to the front pads and found them to have plenty of life left to them. My guess 20,000 miles or more of life left on them.
So here is my question, is it normal to have the rear brake pads wear so much faster than the front pads?
I did replace both front and back pads and rotors with Power Stop’s extreme truck and tow rotors and pads.

As an additional note The rear pad pairs wore about the same. About a three millimeter difference between the pair.
