Review on Raybestos 781PG Professional Grade Parking by Justin Herman

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Wrong screw size + weak clips

Brake pads come with clip and screw kit for various GM parking brake designs. None of the bolts fit my 2005 Chevy Avalanche. The clip that fitted my car had a weaker spring material than the original and did not have an anti-corrosion coating on the spring leaf. I had to reuse the original screws and clamps. The outside diameter of one shoe was 0.015 inch larger than the other (measured prior to installation). One shoe had a few stains that appeared to be glue residue on the lining. Had to be cleaned with a razor blade. was identical to the original parts. After about 1000 km the parking brake still works perfectly and holds the car even on steep mountain slopes.

Pros
  • This is great
