Heavier vehicles with larger brake systems are more likely to experience higher temperatures, requiring a brake pad that has excellent heat dissipation characteristics. Heavy fleet trucks and light trucks and SUVs carrying heavy tow loads experience high braking temperatures.
I bought these for my 2003 Dodge Diesel Dually. Got a 5k pound camper and want the toughest pads you can buy. These are it, after bedding they run quiet and you can feel the bite of extreme stopping power. Only a few mins so far but I feeling confident. There is no hardware included in the pad kit, you have to buy the stainless abutment/sliders and rubber accorbian boots separate. I was surprised when I went to install. Called Hawk and they re not included. No big other than the surprise on a Sunday night when everything is closed and your truck is apart in the driveway!!
