About to do a brake/suspension/steering overall BUT simply, what it's the best brake fluid to use in out trucks. I know Dot3/4 is fine...I'm talking brand.

Doing the GMT900 upgrades & swapping discs/pads in back.

Best fluid?

ATE Super blue. Although unless you are towing a lot you probably won't get your brakes hot enough to notice any difference over something less expensive like Castrol.

Used this in my race car. Good stuff. Probably overkill for our trucks though. But if you dont mind spending the money......

How much do these trucks hold assuming you flushed the old crap out?

Probably about 2-3 quarts. Your owner's manual should have that info in the capacities section.

Grab a Motive Break bleeder too. Makes changing fluid really easy!
