Built to haul, tow, and stop under pressure, the Wagner SevereDuty SX989 Rear Disc Brake Pad Set installs as a direct-fit rear replacement for the 2003-2008 Chevrolet Express 3500 and 2003-2008 GMC Savana 3500 (All engines). It supplies fresh friction to the rear disc brakes so the calipers can clamp the rotors when worn pads are the cause of reduced braking or noise.
- Built tough: engineered and tested for fleets, police-pursuit use, and vehicles driven in demanding conditions such as frequent stopping, gear hauling, and heavy loads.
- Long life: semi-metallic, carbon-based friction material engineered in-house for durable performance in the toughest applications.
- Zero-copper OE25: features Wagner's OE25 zero-copper friction formulation, validated with rigorous OE-style on-vehicle testing.
- Ready to fit: includes pad shims and a slotted design, plus a mechanical pad wear sensor; abutment clips are not included.
Replace worn or noisy rear pads before the friction material reaches its wear limit. For even, balanced braking, it's best practice to replace both sides of the rear axle together as a matched set. Made in the United States.
