Look at the sticker in the glovebox. The vehicle is probably equipped with JD7 brakes. Largest-diameter front rotors offered except for the C3500HD. 13" x 2.5" drums--largest diameter and second-widest drums offered.researching for a full (front and rear) brake system overhaul on my 98 K2500 8600lbs 8 lug as well.
The Delco calipers have bigger pistons than the 1500s and 6-lug 2500s.
I don't think there's any easy upgrade.
Order parts based on your brake ID on the sticker--which is probably JD7.
