Nope. The benefits of cryo treatment can be seen *easily* on something like
a trombone slide. It depends on the stresses introduced during the heat
treatment, metal forming and/or machining because it can have zero effect
too.

Is it worthwhile? In most applications probably not.

Metal to metal can not produce a high pitch sound like a squeal.
Some describe it as sandpaper, but I wouldn't, it sounds exactly like
it's set up on a drum lath.

jeep sells a value pack now pads and rotors are 150.00
and composit rotors can be cut but at a real slow rpm
