Front and Rear Brake Rotors
The 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD uses heavy-duty front and rear rotors sized for towing and payload demands. Front rotors typically handle more braking force and heat because weight transfers forward when stopping, so they usually show wear faster than rear rotors. Rear rotors contribute to stability and parking brake function, and on this truck their design balances load-bearing and durability. At Stevinson Chevrolet in CO we inspect both axles, measure runout and thickness, and recommend resurfacing only when safe and cost-effective. Our service advisors explain the trade-offs: resurfacing can extend life when within specs, while replacement restores factory performance and includes OEM part guarantees. Take advantage of our service specials and financing plans to manage the cost; then schedule service for a fast, certified procedure that reduces downtime and keeps your Silverado 3500HD towing-ready.
