310 RL - Is the MORyde independent suspension worth doing?

I’m also curious as to which replacement pads you went with. I had to have my factory D-Maxx pads changed out at 7K miles, the brake caliper slide pins were factory installed dry and were causing the calipers to stick which in turn burned up the pads and one caliper. MorRyde quickly sent out all new rotors, pads and a new caliper. I have also lost a slide pin from the same position 3 times, installed by the factory, then a Mobil tech who did the brake warranty work and the a dealership tech. After requesting and receiving a new caliper mounting bracket that pin has stayed in place. Last week I found another slide pin to be missing on a different wheel, fortunately I had 2 spares from all of the previous slide pin drama, now I only have one spare. To hopefully keep all of the slide pins in place going forward I pulled them one at a time, cleaned them, cross drilled the bolt heads, relubed, installed then safety lock wired them all to prevent having the back out.

Even with all the issues that I have had with the brakes I still think that both the independent suspension and disc brakes are well worth their cost, the trailer handles, rides and stops great! Our trailer is a ‘24 385FL Paradigm.

They sent me a set of Kevlar pads, also Deemax, that I have to have installed. Did you go with another brand? If so, what did you go with?
They sent EVERTHING to do entire system over. New pads were still DeeMax, but they had to also replace all 4 rotor/hub as well. Hard to really see the damage in the image below, but after inspection (and images sent to DeeMax) the decision was to replace with all new parts vs trying to turn the rotors, as the damage was so deep, turning wasn't a valid option.
