    2021 Tahoe PPV massive oem brakes, 16"

    Good write up. Thanks for sharing. I was referencing your stock components for brake upgade on my 05 tahoe. The 13" rotors and a 4 piston calipers would stop better than my current 12" with 2 piston. But been researching the 16" 6 piston as well. As far as your sensor and hose bracket issues...

    Thats awesome! If you dont mind, where did you source the calipers and cost? As far as your 21 Denali, what was the the caliper on it? 2 piston, 4 piston, and did it use a caliper mounting bracket like previous generations or is the bracket deleted like the ppv caliper? Thanks!

    The coating on the rotor will wear off. Do a good burn-in/seat the pads, let them cool, then do it again couple hours later. The 1st time you do it, you will still see the coating, and it will start to wear off. The 2nd time should be good. The police pads put off some dust, so just stay on top...

    Electric Fan Conversion Question

    The factory fan harness grounds the fans on the frame rail behind the driver side front bumper.

    I researched the Ranchhand site and found the brackets they use. They also had wiring extensions to help relocate the sensors from the bumber to the pushbumper. I have not purchased any. Price seem to be reasonable if I recall. I am not sure if they will be a bolt on to any other manufacturers...

    Brakes squeel like crazy

    Ya. It all depends on the drivers. The normal vehicles don't tend to squeal as much as the police ones do.

    No, it takes a few thousand miles, then they are horrible.

    Brakes squeel like crazy

    Thats about right. We just had the officers deal with the noise till the first brake job. Then it got addressed with the new pads. Depending on the operator. We averaged just about 20k on fronts and 22k on the rears.

    Pushbar suggestions

    That came out real good! I see it relocates the two inboard sensors to the pushbar. That gives me an idea on our police Setina bars. Was there enough harness slack to relocate the sensors or did you have to make extentions?

    I have ranch hands on some f450 and 550's , they are both older and fleet trucks, so no sensors. Never seen one on a tahoe. They are nice and cover the headlights like you want.

    2021 Tahoe PPV massive oem brakes, 16"

    I lnow this is an old thread. Just thought I would add some info. Not sure if it will help. On our 2021+ ppv tahoes we replace the factory pads with Raybestos Police # SP2407PP for fronts and # SP2174APPH for rears. Available at O'Reillys. I dont recall cost of pads but I dont recall them...

    Any fix for rear door unlock and headlights.....

    I am not sure about the door locks. That may be accessible through the dash and or radio controls. If the rear door panels have been eliminated and new smooth covers installed to work with a cage, it is possible the rear lock sensors were removed. As far as the headlights, That all depends...

    Brakes squeel like crazy

    Hey everyone, I'm a Fleet Tech for a local municipality. The brake squeal in the gm ppv is not a new problem. We have delt with it in every gm police car since 04. The factory gm pads are just noisy and wear out fast. We deal with the sqeal until the 1st brake job and swap out to another...
