Brake hardware differences 16-17/18


Recommended Posts

Does anyone know if there were brake hardware (caliper/rotor/line/etc..) difference between years?

Calipers are the same 2011-2019.  Rotors were the same 2011-early 2015 (pre "AVF").  2015 AVF-2019 rotors are the Duralife coated rotors, but those will interchange back to 2011-2015.  Pads changed part # to match the new Duralife rotors 2015-2019.  2011-2019 everything will interchange though (pads/rotos/calipers).  The only thing that shows as a design change is the parking brake shoes.  I believe it has to do with how the shoe is held to the backing plate, but I'm not 100% on that.

I was looking at a BBK that is for sale. But I can’t find anywhere that it fits a 17. It came off a 16. I think.

What brand kit?  I took a look on autoanything.com, Brembo, Stoptech and Baer make ones for 1500 trucks, but not HD.

These bad a$$ units?   http://www.wilwood.com/BrakeKits/BrakeKitsProdRear?itemno=140-13874-R&year=2016&make=GMC&model=Sierra+2500+HD&option=Denali

I just quick checked through GM catalogs, calipers and rotors are good 2016-2018.  Wilwood even has the same kits listed for the GMT-900 body HD trucks.  I see no reason these monsters shouldn't fit other than the wheel size minimum they have of 20".

    • You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling. 
    • You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built. 
    • Diesel hit $6.00 here today at the truck stop.   Payed $2.79 for E85 today too.
    • Thanks for posting, I'm sure it will help someone
