Steve, i have a 2002 silv 4x4 longbed.....anyway i put SSBC slotted rotors(4) and their high performance pads ( how high performance i dont know)....anyway, i love them...i was pulling a 4 place snowmobile trailer (yes in the middle of summer) with 3 sleds and a quad in it. I was doing 60mph when some jacka** decided to lock up the brakes in front of me so he could make his turn....anyway i stopped that truck and trailer faster than i thought possible....thank god i just put the new SSBC's on the week before.....


Anyway enough blah ....i love them, i paid like $380 from jegs....
