Continuing the sorting out of my new '91 GL.  In preparation for new
tires, I have all the wheels off and got my first good look at the
brakes.

Front pads are down enough that I might as well change them.  Have
not had the rear drums off yet.  Rotors have some light surface rust
from sitting but look good otherwise -- have not measured them yet,
what is the minimum spec?

Brake pads: looks like there are an array of options.  I checked the
Wiki to see if there was an agreed-upon "best" and did not find any.

So -- Pagid, ATE, PBR, TRW?  I don't really want to run metallic, and
I'm leaning to the Pagid based on what I've read.  PBR Deluxe sound
like they might not perform as well.  Could not really find much info
on the ATE and TRW pads.  Thoughts?

Also, I noticed that the right upper ball joint boot is torn.  The
left upper looks OK visually, but would it make sense to go ahead and
do both so that I don't have to worry about it for a while?

I understand the lowers are a press-in deal, do they generally wear
the same as the uppers?
