    I give up, sorry laszlo i found a link for the pads and posted it, but was shown a message that it had to be looked at by the moderator, i see for the second time now my link was not approved???? so i hope you can get this handled with good results.

    Visit gmpartsdirect it is kind of a different site to navigate if you do not have part # but type what you are looking for (brakes) and agree to terms for catalog then you can search from there

    Well I had my new tires installed yesterday, and I asked them to check my brakes while they were at it. They told me I still have about 50% of the pads left. WTF? 141K miles and the brakes are still 50%? I must be stopping the truck by dragging my feet on the ground.

    I'm going to check them myself.

    Do any of you know a good place to buy the same (I assume Delco) brake pads for less? I haven't searched yet, since I thought some of you guys may already have experience with this. In fact, I haven't even priced them at the dealer, which may be the best way to go anyhow.

    I've never bought anything from them. But it says GM Parts.

    I'm sure they would love to sell a potential brake job. The question is, were they checked by that kid that can barely find his way to work each day or the guy that speaks some language you can't understand!

    That's what I'm worried about Warren. I got the tires at Discount Tire and they don't do brakes. So I figured they would be unbiased, but I'm not sure the guy knew what to look for. The pads have a wear indicator groove in them to show how much is left. I don't have time to check them before I leave for MT, so I hope they are ok.
