Installation Notes

Confirm rotor diameter, steering configuration, axle notes, and rear caliper type before ordering. This kit is listed for front position only, and several applications require matching the exact vehicle configuration shown in the fitment list. Part number 8212-48004 is a useful reference when verifying a Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, or Cadillac Escalade front brake service application.

Quality Assurance

Use the fitment notes to verify the correct front brake kit for your vehicle before installation. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
