The review
The same Z36 Truck & Tow formulation covers GM's full-size truck and SUV platform here — Silverado 1500, Tahoe and the GMC Yukon share brake hardware closely enough to use the same pad part number. As with the Ford-fitment Z36 pads in this catalog, these are aimed at owners who tow, haul or drive mountain grades regularly, not just daily commuting.
Installation hardware is included and the pads carry the same 30-day/12-month/12,000-mile warranty as PowerStop's other Z36 pads. At $43.78 it's the least expensive of the three PowerStop entries in this catalog, with a smaller but still solid rating base.
205 ratings at 4.6 stars is a smaller sample than PowerStop's F-150 pads, but the pattern of feedback (reduced fade under load) is consistent with the rest of the Z36 line.
Pros
- Same proven Z36 Truck & Tow formulation as the F-150 pads in this catalog
- Lowest price of the three PowerStop entries here
- 30-day/12-month/12,000-mile warranty
- Installation hardware included
Cons
- Smaller review base (205 ratings) than the F-150 variants
- Rear-only — front pads sold separately
Ideal for: Silverado, Tahoe and Yukon owners who tow or haul and want a budget-friendly entry into PowerStop's Truck & Tow line.
What buyers say
205 ratings at 4.6 stars — consistent with PowerStop's other Z36 pads in reduced brake fade under towing loads.
