I sent the below email to "Power Stop" to try and get an answer regarding the difference between the two rear brakes selections the show on their website. I have not heard back yet.
I'm looking to replace rotors, calipers and pads.
Wondered if anyone has been down this road. Comments?
I?m looking at ordering new brakes for my 2003 Chevy Avalanche Z66 2WD.
I?m trying to clarify what rear brakes I need to go with.
I want the truck extreme tow series.
Mine is 2WD but based on some questions that came up on the ?Avalanche website forums? I?m trying to clarify what rear brakes I need to go with.
I noticed that on your website the 2WD has the following parts for rear brakes (rotors are the same for both 2WD and 4WD):
Calipers: S4940
Pads: Z36-974A
The 4WD has the following parts for rear brakes:
Calipers S4764
Pads: Z36-834
What are the differences in caliper and pads caused by? Number of pistons, etc.?
There has been discussion that if you have a locking rear differential you need different size rotors but your rotors are the same size. I?m not aware of what would cause the requirement of different caliper and pads.
Appreciate your help.
