Help damp brake noise on truck and medium-duty applications with the Raybestos Specialty Brake Rotor, part number 56828, a vented rear disc brake rotor built for noise-prone applications. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 1999-2013 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 and 2004 GMC Sierra 1500. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
Raybestos combines vehicle-specific cooling vane configurations with application-specific iron. The goal is to damp noise, improve service life and make brake jobs faster. The rotor also follows SAE standards for tensile strength, hardness and iron grade, for structural integrity.
Specifications:
A rotor may need replacing if you notice vibration when braking, grinding or scraping noises, or deep scoring. It also needs replacing when it measures at or below the discard thickness. The listed applications use two rotors, and this listing is for one. Replacing both sides together as a matched pair is recommended for even, balanced braking.
Is this the right Chevy Silverado 1500 brake rotor for my 2004 truck?
It is listed as a rear rotor for the 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and the 2004 GMC Sierra 1500. It is a 13-inch rotor with 8 lug holes.
Does it fit the 1999-2013 Chevrolet Silverado 2500?

What does drum-in-hat mean on this rotor?
The rotor's hat has a built-in drum surface on the inside. On drum-in-hat setups, the parking brake shoes work against that surface.
Is the rotor sold individually, and what comes in the box?
Yes. This listing is for one rotor, and it does not include an ABS tone ring or bearings. The listed applications use two, so replacing both sides together is recommended.
What is the minimum thickness for this rotor?
The discard thickness is 27 mm (1.063 in), and a new rotor measures 29 mm (1.142 in). Replace it if it measures at or below the discard spec.
