2007 Sierra 1500 Classic 160kmiles This topic seems to be somewhat covered but I’m at my wits end and reaching out to internet strangers I screwed up and accidentally topped off my master cylinder with the wrong fluid. Ruined everything and the front calipers would begin to drag after just a few miles. flushed 32oz of fluid through the system then replaced the master cylinder and booster. I bench bled the master cylinder. Fronts continued to drag. Then replaced the brake hoses and calipers, bled, and the dragging brakes continued. Then replaced the ABS module, had the brakes power bled and the problem continues. Is there anything left to change, or something I’m not thinking of, or could it be that I didn’t clear all the bad fluid? Every bleeder seemed to be pumping clear fluid. interesting to note, I cannot recreate the calipers dragging in the driveway. I can pump the brakes, drive in reverse and brake, pull forward and brake and the dragging will not occur, I only happens when I’m out driving for a cpl miles at 45-50mph the problem presents itself much quicker the warmer it is outside.

Hey all! I'm the proud owner of our 1st brand-new vehicle ever! this '22 Silverado HD High County is a game-changer for pulling our new camper trailer! I recently retired and found this beauty on a dealer lot near me! So... as per usual with my vehicles, I really enjoy there look of nice clean, glossy calipers peaking from behind the rims! These wheels are not as open-spoked as others I've done, but still look great, especially when they turning miles not the highway! I always use the brush-on G2 caliper paint. The stuff is incredible! Here's a couple pictures in process and afterwards... Carl

2004 Yukon Denali XL 1500 AWD Ok, so I have done many brakes in the past but this has me stumped. I put new calipers rotors and pads all the way around on the truck and have bled the brakes like 6 times. twice with a helper and 4 times with a bottle. All times the fluid comes out with no air but it still goes to the floor when its turned on. A small amount of push back is noticed after pumping a few times while the truck is off. But as soon as I turn it on and push its nothing. I have read about there possibly being air in the ABS module and am looking for how to bleed that with just one person and have it actually work. The master cylinder is and has been filled throughout and never dropper too low. I placed all the new parts and puller the hose off the old calipers and attached it to the new ones quickly replacing the copper washers. I just cant figure out what could be happening, any help would be appreciated.

Does anyone have the Brembo 6-piston brake calipers installed before or after the fact? My previous vehicle had factory Brembo brakes and it was awesome. It had great bite with no fuss. Anytime i get in a vehicle without Brembo brakes, I notice the difference. The default brakes on this truck sometimes feel inadequate to me. If the Brembo package wasn't so expensive, i would probably go for it.
