What is the minimum rotor thickness 2005 Chevy Silverado?

There's no single minimum rotor thickness for a 2005 Chevy Silverado. The minimum thickness varies depending on the specific model (1500, 2500, 3500), engine, trim level, and even whether it has front or rear disc brakes (some models might have rear drums).

To find the minimum acceptable rotor thickness for *your* specific 2005 Chevy Silverado, you should:

1. Check your owner's manual: This is the best source of information. The manual should specify the minimum thickness for your rotors.

2. Consult a repair manual: A Haynes or Chilton repair manual for your specific year and model will also provide this information.

3. Check online parts catalogs: Websites like AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, or Napa Auto Parts allow you to search for parts based on your vehicle's VIN. The specifications for replacement rotors will often include the minimum thickness.

Trying to find a generic minimum thickness online is unreliable and could lead to unsafe braking performance. Always refer to the official sources mentioned above.
