So I see guys on youtube doing this 4 piston upgrade from a 2019 silverado to their 00-06 silverado.
Has anyone here tried this on the Tahoe?
Should fit right?
Seems pretty easy and straight foreward.
Like $350 in parts.

I would like bigger brakes.

Following...really like the idea of bigger (better) brakes at a fraction of the big name company's offerings

This guy did it.
Fit on 17s no spacers
He says silverado yukon tahoe subburbs


Home depot washers.....not even stainless.
He did use SS brake lines though. Have to commend him for that.

I understand now why that one guy machined the ridge off the front of the caliper....
Second guy didn't and he had clearance issues.
We'll see

I had a friend at a dealer pull the part numbers for the silverado brakes.
I priced them out at GMPartsdirect.com.

I have NOT validated the install of these parts but from the schematic they look to be correct
Washers for caliper alignment not included.
I don't know if the splash shields will fit.

2021 Silverado Brake Swap List
Description Part# Price
Caliper Front Right 13536580 81.08
Caliper Front Left 13536579 81.08
Splash Shield Left 84080138 8.83
Splash Shield Right 84080137 8.83
Front Rotor 13514522 82.73 ....13.5" rotor
Front Rotor 13514522 82.73
OEM Pads 84847749 108.04
Disc Brake Pad Pin Kit 13513399 6.35
Disc Brake Pad Pin Kit 13513399 6.35
Total 466.02

Not bad for all new parts considering the next leg up is Wilwood 6P for around $1800.00, 14" rotor
New Chevy Silverado Work Trucks....the least optioned truck come with 17" wheels. And it fits on those.
There's a raised ridge on the caliper that might interfere with some wheels. So Beware.


Who will be the first?

I'm wondering if these will clear 20" with 28mm offset. I realized after the fact that my stock 2004 17" are 31mm and the take-offs from my BIL's new Silverado I put on are only 28mm.
