TRQ Brake Pad & Rotor Kit Semi-Metallic Rear 2500 Series - Complete

In this review the TRQ Brake Pad & Rotor Kit is judged as a practical, budget-conscious option for owners of 2000s heavy-duty GM 2500 models who need a full rear brake refresh. The kit's biggest selling point is that it supplies everything required for a rear brake job in one package: semi-metallic pads, two rotors, two calipers, and replacement hoses, which saves sourcing time and reduces compatibility guesswork for common 2500 and 2500 HD rear setups.

Key Features

• Complete rear kit: Ships with rear semi-metallic pads, two rotors, two calipers and two replacement brake hoses so a full rear axle repair can be completed without separate purchases.
• Semi-metallic pads: The pad material balances stopping power and durability for heavy-duty towing and highway driving commonly done by Silverado and Sierra owners.
• Direct-fit components: Rotors and calipers are made for direct replacement on the listed 2500 and 2500 HD models to reduce installation time and eliminate the need for modifications.
• Compatibility guidance: The package carries many reference numbers and fit notes for 330mm rotors with a 4.63 in center bore to help confirm fitment for specific model years and brake setups.
• Replacement hoses included: New rear brake hoses are supplied to address common wear points and provide a safer, more complete repair than parts-only kits.

Who It's For

This kit is best for DIYers and independent shops working on 2000-2006 Chevrolet and GMC 2500/2500 HD and related large SUVs that use rear 330mm rotors with a 4.63 in center bore, and for owners who prefer buying a full rear axle solution rather than individual parts. It saves time when both calipers and rotors need replacement along with pads and hoses.

Customers who should look elsewhere include owners of models with different rotor diameters or center bores, and those who need front brake components only. Also, drivers seeking ceramic pads for quieter operation may prefer a different kit, since this one uses semi-metallic pads which can be louder under certain conditions.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Comprehensive kit provides pads, rotors, calipers and hoses for a single-repair purchase.
• Semi-metallic pads offer strong stopping power suitable for heavy loads and towing.
• Direct-fit design reduces effort and potential adjustment during installation.
• Good value for money compared with buying each component separately.

Cons

• Fitment is mixed for some buyers, so careful confirmation of rotor diameter and center bore is required before purchase.
• Semi-metallic pads can generate more noise than ceramic options for some drivers.
