Review on Raybestos 781PG Professional Grade Parking by Michael Willis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

FITS PERFECTLY! 2001 Chevy Tahoe

I ordered and received rear brake rotors and pads for my 2001 Chevy Tahoe. "Hey, my parking brake hasn't worked in years. When I pulled the discs out I found that my 18 year old parking brake pads were completely worn out. No problem, so I ordered them. To remove them from the clamp and star adjuster, the old pads had to be pryed out once with a large flathead screwdriver and a hammer, then experimented to find the correct way to remove them from the axle. .Remove old screw and clip Insert new screw and clip Play again with the new one on the axle Align with the clip and place the ends on the pinion Adjust until you get the desired resistance with the rotor engaged. Just freak out! Now my parking brake works like a champ. If you don't know how to do this, search YouTube. many videos about this process, it's not that hard. Ork now takes an incredible load on my transmission while parked. NOTE: This is one of the few parts that is actually $19.99 cheaper than Revain at AutoZone. The prices also fluctuate. I bought this one for $32.78 and a few days later I bought another one for another truck and found one was $34.32 and I don't know why? Exactly the same part from the same ad a few days apart? Still I give it 5 stars because it was a quality product, it had everything I needed and it was delivered to my door in a flash. So I spent 27.91 more on two than AutoZone. It's a well known brand and I didn't have to leave my house. Raybestos wasn't part of AutoZone, it was their brand. With the savings I've made by purchasing quality auto parts from Revain, I will not complain or lower my rating above $27.91. However, do price fluctuations make me curious?
