It is a front-axle set: two 14 inch drilled and slotted rotors and a set of ceramic brake pads. The product photo shows the two rotors, four pads and eight hardware clips, and the rotors in the picture have an 8-lug bolt pattern. Easy Life Markets sells the kit for owners and workshops replacing the front pads and rotors on these heavy-duty pickups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA 2500 or 3500 HD does serious work. Towing a trailer, hauling a loaded bed or carrying a service body all put far more heat into the front brakes than a light truck ever sees, and the front axle does most of the stopping. Over time the rotors score, develop hot spots or wear below their minimum thickness, and the pads wear down with them. The usual result is a pulsing pedal, a shudder when slowing from speed, or a grinding noise. Replacing the rotors and pads together gives the front axle a clean start.

That is useful on a truck that tows, because long downhill stretches with a trailer are where plain rotors tend to fade. Slots also keep wiping the pad surface clean. The trade-off is that drilled and slotted rotors can wear pads a little faster and may make a faint whirring sound under braking, which is normal. The ceramic pads in this kit are the type generally chosen for low dust and quiet running.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSigns Your Front Brakes Need Replacing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA shudder or pulsing pedal when slowing from highway speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSquealing, or grinding once the pads are worn through\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrooves, cracks or blue heat marks on the rotor face\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA raised lip around the outer edge of the rotor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake fade when towing or on long descents\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupport the truck on stands rated for its weight.
