Raybestos 781PG Professional Grade Parking Review

. Installed on a 1999 Silverado. Passed through with no problems. Delivered with a very complete equipment. Putting shoes on the axle is a bit uncomfortable, but that has nothing to do with the quality of this product. Would definitely buy again if I had to replace the parking brake pads. I hope, however, that it is not so soon.

These brake pads work as they should, the organics are a bit soft, when installing, be careful not to damage the surface of the pad. Has a great bite, used once a couple of times. I really like that this set has a lot of small parts that are hard to find. The value corresponds to the price.

I have a 2000 Silverado with an optional 10-bolt rear end and a 3.73 gear ratio. My photo shows the new clips and screws just above my original clips and screws. None of the new screws match the size of the original, and all of the new clips are a different style. However, the very first new clip, the one with wings, was functionally the same. I just used this first one along with my old screw and it fit perfectly.

The shoes themselves seem fine, but the mounting screw that holds the shoe in place was the wrong size (too big), I had to use the old ones. So when you order these shoes, make sure you SAVE all the details until you're done. It comes with a few additional hardware components, so it should be suitable for some applications. If they're going to package it this way, they need to include the RIGHT hardware for each application.

I try to replace parts as they wear out with genuine AC Delco parts for my 2004 Chevy Silverado 1500. These are genuine ACDelco parts made in China. One side came up fine, but the other didn't insert into the controls. I compared it to the original and of course it was too long. Had to grind about 1/16 inch to make it fit. Only the quality is gone. I also replaced the rear brake discs, they are also made in China.

Excellent cylindrical brake pads. I didn't need them, but there's absolutely nothing wrong with them. I assumed, on the advice of a so-called mechanic, that the originals were worn out. NOT RIGHT! When I took the rear brakes apart I found the real problem. It was just full of !@#$. If you want the job done right and so on. Lesson learned. First disassemble, take a close look and then order as required. Well, they'll save for the future. 2 thumbs up.

Great fit and quality! Don't buy reservations when rebuilding parking brakes. I installed the kit on my 2002 GMC 1500. I bought the truck new and could always drive off with the parking brake on and of course wear them out. These shoes are way better. Now when I apply the brake the truck doesn't move until the brake is released. I was shocked how much better the parking brake held up. Raybestos parking brakes are much better than the originals. I also replaced the rear brake discs due to wear…

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…

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…
