Detroit Axle - Brake Kit for Chevy GMC Silverado Sierra 1500 Tahoe Yukon XL Suburban Escalade ESV Drilled

Brakes fit and work fine on my Tahoe. Very simple install and replacement of old brakes. Little noisy while braking but assuming that’s the drilled and slotted rotors. Dont recommend the shipping facility that I had but that isn’t the sellers fault Read more

Perfect fit for my daughter's 08 GMC envoy, the brakes squeak a little bit that's typical for ceramic. I tested them pretty heavily to make sure they were safe and worked properly. Went from 70mph down to 25mph pretty quick. She drives an hour 1 away to work every day so I make sure she has good quality parts. Especially with the brakes they perform great. They come with everything needed to a solid replacement. The slotted rotors are good at dissipating heat quickly as to help the pads not burn or crystallize. Read more

I ordered this brake kit to fix a low-speed brake squeal that resulted from a prior brake pad replacement without replacing the rotors. The cost of this kit includes both front and rear brake pads and rotors and they also throw in a container of DOT3 brake fluid, a can of brake parts cleaner spray, and a couple of packets of anti-seize grease for places that the brake pad ears slide in the retaining clips. These are heavy duty disc brake rotors and pads cost me a fraction of what my local auto parts store listed them for. Installation was fairly easy, despite NO INSTRUCTIONS included with the kit. I watched a couple of installation videos on YouTube and gained enough confidence to do the job. A couple of things that I had not expected: the boxes containing the rotors and pads are not marked to tell you which axle they go on. With my Ford Expedition, there's a set of rear drum brakes for the emergency brake and the correct rotor needs to be able to fit over the drums. You can either slide the rotor over the lugs on the rear axle after removing the old rotor to see if it fits, or just pick up the rotors: the front rotors are much heavier than the rear rotors and this makes sense since the rear rotors have the extra metal removed so they fit over the emergency drum brakes. The other unexpected problem I encountered was the old rotors were seized or rusted onto the rotating hub that contains the lug bolts. I had to beat the inner surface of the old rotor with a 4# sledge hammer to break it loose and remove the old rotor and it took a lot more force and hits with the hammer than I would have thought, but that's not an issue with the Detroit Axle kit. The kit comes with two identical slips of paper with printed instructions for bedding the brakes after installation. I followed the instructions the best I could -- the neighbors looked at me oddly when I accelerated down the street, only to ALMOST stop, then repeat a few more times. After bedding the brakes, the squeal is gone and the brakes work great. I would recommend this kit to anyone that has a bit of mechanical ability or a DIY attitude as well as the required tools, including various sockets, hex wrenches, floor / hydraulic jack and jack stand.

I don’t leave reviews much, but these deserved one. Grabbed the slotted rotors and pads from Detroit Axle and I’m honestly impressed. Install was straightforward, everything lined up perfectly, no weird fitment issues. I’m pretty picky with my cars and I could tell right away the quality was there. Performance-wise, big difference from my old setup. Stronger bite, smoother stops, and the car just feels safer overall. No vibrations, no noise, no nonsense. Pedal feels solid and confident. For the price, you really can’t complain. You’re getting good performance without paying crazy name-brand prices. And the packaging? AWESOME. Everything was protected like they actually care about what shows up at your door. No damage, no dinged edges, nothing. If you want solid brakes that look good and actually perform, these are it.

Good quality just the brake pads are not so great I had to swap them out for ones that dont make alot brake dust Read more

Needed replacement. Fitment was correct and everything lined up well during installation and the included hardware helped make the process smoother. Braking is now smoother, quieter, and more responsive than before with noticeably better stopping power compared to the old worn brakes and rotors. Stopping feels more consistent during regular driving. One of my calipers was already broken, but that was unrelated to the brake kit itself. So far they seem durable and I haven’t noticed excessive brake dust after normal use. Overall solid replacement parts and a clear improvement in braking performance. Make sure to double check compatibility with your vehicle before ordering. Read more
