The Story
Brake Kit for Express 3500 and Savana 3500
The Dynamite Friction DFC GEOSPEC Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads kit is a front and rear disc brake kit for select Chevrolet Express 3500 and GMC Savana 3500 applications. Part number 4504-48017 combines coated rotors and matched friction material for service work on high-demand vans.
Key Features
- DFC GEOSPEC coated brake rotors with a silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
- Dry-processed rotors arrive ready to install, with no oil coating to remove
- G3000/G11H18 cast iron construction engineered to OE specifications
- Non-directional rotor finish for more even pad bed-in and smoother braking
- 100% inspected rotors with balance correction on vented designs
- DFC 5000 Advanced Brake Pads are post-cured and scorched for stable friction performance
- Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims help reduce noise, vibration, and harshness
Product Details
Part number 4504-48017 is built for owners and technicians servicing Chevrolet Express 3500 and GMC Savana 3500 brake systems. The GEOSPEC rotor coating is applied to help resist rust, while the dry finish reduces prep time during brake service. The rotor machining process uses tight tolerances and a non-directional surface finish to support consistent pad contact and quieter stops. The included DFC 5000 Advanced Brake Pads are formulated for stable friction output and reduced initial break-in time.
Compatible With 2013-2017 Chevrolet Express 3500, front and rear; 2013-2017 GMC Savana 3500, front and rear; 2006-2012 Chevrolet Express 3500, front and rear; 2006-2012 GMC Savana 3500, front and rear; 2005 Chevrolet Express 3500, front and rear; 2005 GMC Savana 3500, front and rear; 2004 Chevrolet Express 3500, front and rear; 2004 GMC Savana 3500, front and rear; 2003-2004 Chevrolet Express 3500, front and rear; 2003-2004 GMC Savana 3500, front and rear.
Common Brake Service Issues
- Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
- Brake pulsation from worn or uneven rotors
- Noise during braking from aged pads or poor pad-to-rotor contact
- Longer stopping distances caused by worn friction material
- Brake vibration or harshness during daily or fleet use
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the vehicle year, make, model, and configuration before ordering, especially on 2013-2017 Chevrolet Express 3500 and GMC Savana 3500 single rear wheel applications with a 3.54 gear ratio, and on 2005 models with the 1st design and 123mm rear disc center hole note. Clean all mating surfaces before installation and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s brake service procedure for pad bedding and torque specifications.
Quality Assurance
Each DFC GEOSPEC rotor is machined to OE-level specifications, inspected for critical dimensions, and checked for balance on vented rotors. The rotors carry a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
