If you find em let us know. My first set of the NAPA pads were US Made and last Mexico. FordGuy listed pad number you can cross reference.

Not all.

Just put new pads on our Titan system: Napa UP7136M

Excellent performance.

The reason is that they are the same as Beretta Cavalier Corsica Sunbird Skylark Cutlass Calais Grand Am Century Skyhawk Celebrity Cutlass Ciera 6000 Cimarron Firenza 6000 Somerset Calais 6000

Makes it easy to get replacements.

I use NAPA'a Best UP-7136M on my Kodiak system with Morryde IS 8k..

I saw a big difference in stopping power when I swapped out from my stock Kodiak ceramic pads to the NAPA semi metallic pads...
