Caliper upgrade

i went straight to 3500 ones for a 93 7.4L dually i think it was. at least i thought what they gave me were the 1 ton pads if not then my apologies for the argument. i do know the 2500 6 lug pads work perfect as stated they are the same as the 1.2 tons

Maybe that's the difference then, I ordered mine for a 98 8 lug 2500. Maybe the earlier ones use a different pad

I looked up a 98 3500 an it called for the same part number. I wasn't trying to argue, just to save someone else some $$$ since I knew it didn't work on mine.

:Hmm: dually call for a different part number, that has to be it then. I ordered srw pads. The 93 uses the same ones as a 98 to...

odd just to avoid hassle go with the 1/2 tons anyways until someone feels like messing with all types of pads one day. i just went with the duallys knowing that if they didnt work then i could easily take them back and walk up to the store. they worked unless they gave me the wrong pads. which usually doesnt happen to me but not unheard of.

Went with pads off a 91 k3500 single rear wheel bolted up perfect no rubbing no grinding best the brakes have ever worked

interesting. seems like the pads may not be the issue then? maybe its the later model truck that have different clearancing in that area.

Gm is amazing bout interchangeable parts so as long as u stay the same year of truck and make sure it's 4wd or 2wd shouldn't have problems
