PowerStop KC5561-36 Z36 F&R Brake Rotor Kit for 2011 Chevy/GMC 2500HD/3500HD SRW

Vehicle Fitment

• 2011 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD (6.6L Duramax LML V8 Diesel)
• 2011 Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD SRW (6.6L Duramax LML V8 Diesel)
• 2011 GMC Sierra 2500HD (6.6L Duramax LML V8 Diesel)
• 2011 GMC Sierra 3500HD SRW (6.6L Duramax LML V8 Diesel)

Fitment Notes

• This kit is limited to the 2011 model year only - GM's redesigned HD platform introduced the 6.6L Duramax LML that year, and this application does not carry over to 2012+ trucks
• SRW (single rear wheel) models only; does not fit DRW (dually) 3500HD trucks
• Includes both front and rear brake components - this is a complete axle-to-axle kit, not a single-end kit

Features

• Z36 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic brake pads deliver stronger stopping power than OEM pads while keeping dust and noise low
• Drilled and slotted rotor design improves heat dissipation for towing, hauling, and mountain driving
• Red powder-coated calipers resist corrosion and add a finished look behind the wheel
• Stainless-steel shims help reduce noise and manage heat under heavy-duty loads
• Zinc-plated rotor finish protects against rust and corrosion over time
• Complete front and rear kit engineered so components work together for balanced braking performance
• Includes a new caliper pin bushing kit where applicable for proper fit and re-installation
• Stainless-steel installation hardware included for a straightforward, bolt-on upgrade

Product Description

The PowerStop KC5561-36 Z36 Truck & Tow kit is a complete front-and-rear brake upgrade built specifically for the 2011 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD/3500HD and GMC Sierra 2500HD/3500HD SRW - the first model year of GM's redesigned HD platform paired with the 6.6L Duramax LML engine. Because this generation's brake hardware differs from both the pre-2011 trucks and the 2012+ facelift, PowerStop engineered this kit specifically around the 2011 axle and caliper specs rather than offering a multi-year fitment.

The kit pairs Z36 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic pads with drilled-and-slotted rotors front and rear, aimed at drivers who tow near-capacity trailers or haul heavy loads regularly. The carbon-fiber reinforcement in the pad compound is built to handle the extra heat and stress that comes with pulling a loaded trailer through mountain grades, while the drilled-and-slotted rotor design helps vent that heat away from the braking surface. Red powder-coated calipers finish the package, protecting against the corrosion these trucks are prone to from winter road treatment.

Since this is a matched front-and-rear kit rather than a single-axle upgrade, it's a good fit for owners who want to address the whole braking system in one order rather than piecing components together separately. All mounting hardware is included for a bolt-on installation. Confirm your truck is an SRW (single rear wheel) model before ordering, since dually 3500HD trucks use different rear brake hardware and are not covered by this kit.
