Brake Pad for 1979-1999 GMC P3500 & More - Bosch BP149

Help your work truck or van stop quietly and smoothly with the BOSCH brake pad set BP149 from the QuietCast line. It is a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 1975-1986 Chevrolet C30 and 1975-1996 Chevrolet G30. It is cataloged for both front and rear positions, depending on the vehicle. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full vehicle list and engine details.

These BOSCH QuietCast brake pads draw on Bosch's OE braking heritage, which dates back to 1927.

• Copper-free friction formula: Bosch's patented copper-free friction formula uses an advanced aerospace alloy and complies with 2025 Copper Free legislation.
• OE-style rubber core shim: Pre-attached multilayer shims bond rubber and steel. They are designed for lower noise, added strength and corrosion resistance.
• PTFE- and rubber-coated hardware: Helps reduce vibration and noise and keeps the pads from binding in the caliper.
• Powder-coated backing plate: Helps prevent rust and corrosion and is intended to increase the pad's product life.

Bosch engineers rigorously formulate and test the friction material. A protective transfer layer is designed to extend both pad and rotor life. Synthetic lubricant is included in all applications to help reduce resistance at sliding contact points.

Signs your pads may need replacing include squealing or grinding when braking, reduced braking response, or friction material that has worn thin. For even, balanced braking, replacing the pads on both sides of the axle together is recommended.
