Centric 106.09890 Disc Brake Pad Set - Rear

Centric Posi-Quiet Rear Brake Pads

Centric Posi-Quiet Extended Wear Semi-Metallic Disc Brake Pad Sets are built for rear brake service on select Chevrolet Express 3500 and GMC Savana 3500 models. Part number 106.09890 uses a semi-metallic friction formula with OE-style positive molding to promote consistent wear and stable braking performance.

The Posi-Quiet line focuses on fit, noise control, and break-in consistency. For rear brake pad replacement on 2003-2008 Chevrolet Express 3500 and 2003-2008 GMC Savana 3500 heavy duty dual rear wheel applications, this pad set includes wear sensor preparation, shims, and mounting hardware where applicable.

Key Features

• Semi-metallic friction material for dependable rear braking performance
• Positive molded friction material for uniform density across the pad
• Integrally molded friction attachment for consistent backing plate bonding
• Precision-cut or shaved backing plates to improve caliper fitment
• Mechanically attached shims to reduce pad vibration noise
• Scorched friction surface to remove impurities and speed initial break-in
• Prepared for pad wear sensor use; wear sensor included
• Mounting hardware and pad shims included

Product Line Details

Centric Posi-Quiet Extended Wear brake pads are engineered around OE-style manufacturing methods. The positive molding process compresses the friction material under high pressure, helping maintain even density and predictable wear characteristics over the service life of the pad. Centric also adds a scorching step to pre-burnish the friction surface and help shorten the bedding-in period after installation.

Fitment

• Fits 2003-2008 Chevrolet Express 3500, rear, Heavy Duty Dual Rear Wheels.
• Fits 2003-2008 GMC Savana 3500, rear, Heavy Duty Dual Rear Wheels.

Common Replacement Reasons

• Rear brake pad wear on heavy duty dual rear wheel vans
• Brake noise or vibration from worn pad shims or backing plates
• Uneven braking feel caused by aged friction material
• Brake warning light service when the wear sensor circuit is involved
• Reduced stopping consistency during routine brake maintenance

Installation Notes

Verify rear axle and dual rear wheel configuration before installation. Inspect rotors, caliper hardware, and guide pins for wear or contamination, and clean the caliper bracket surfaces before fitting the new pads. Follow the vehicle service procedure for wear sensor routing and perform a proper brake bedding process after installation. Part number 106.09890 is also referenced in the aftermarket under cross-reference numbers such as Raybestos SP989TRH and Wagner SX989 for the same application.

Quality Assurance

Centric manufactures the Posi-Quiet line using OE-style positive molding and adds backing plate and shim details aimed at reducing noise and vibration. The friction material is asbestos free and the pads are supplied with the listed installation-related components for the application.
