I look at upgrading the disc brake on my 01 Yukon the system I'm look at is the Stainless Steel Brake Corp. Short Stop Slotted Rotor Upgrade Kit (part# a2351022) it comes with all 4 slotted rotors and high perfomance pads for $400 anyone out there using this system or have any thoughts on it?

Yet another thread that goes no where :jester::tear::crazy:

 

Apparently everyone on here only knows how to say go to Praise Dyno with not much to back it up...

 

I am looking into SSBC...they have a new Force 10 3 Piston Caliper Kit out...check it out...sorry, but other than that I am in the same boat as you.

 

I just don't get this forum...so much apathy towards answers for people's very valid concerns and questions.... :lol:

After upgrading my pads, I'm actually pretty happy with my brakers now. They only other thing I might do is get stainless brake lines. I called praise dyno and they were the ones who suggested that I only upgrade the pads, so that's what I did, only with a different brand.

Thanks for the input man, much appreciated...I had gone with Praise Dyno Pads once before and they really did nada for me...I think I am going to do the SSBC Force 10 Kit and Stainless lines and better fluid and call it a day...only b/c I need new rotors soon anyway so it's not like I am doing anything outside of the actual braided lines, fluid, and Calipers that I wouldn't need to do regardless via GM with worse parts that cost more.

Bosssho, I've noticed your brake posts...:tear:...if you don't mind I'd like to hear how your plan turns out. Do you have a link for the Force 10 kit? Thanks. :jester:

Here you go pal!

Something tells me I won't be around this forum long enough to give you a play by play on how they work out, but this, combinde with stainless lines and better fluid seem to be a far better system than what we have now. Good luck, sorry I don't have any more for you, but I am in the same boat.

      The Peckish Synapse

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      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.
