Just put on power stop tow and haul brake kit on my 2015 Silverado. I only needed front pads and rotors, but at 82,000 miles I figured why not do all 4.
I also added bilstein shocks all the way around. There was not really any need, but why not.

I had the powerstop setup on a VW Beetle I used to have on all four corners. Not sure if it really stopped too much better than what it replaced, but I didn't have any issues with it and was pleased. After 100k on them, they just started to have some surface rust on the edges of the rotors and the pads were getting lower but still good after all those miles. Would recommend and buy again. Honestly, I got them for about the same or less than the cheap stuff at the auto parts stores.
 
Its amazing to me how long OEM brake pads last on these heavy trucks. And yes-power-stop parts are very popular over on the truck forums.

Agreed. And most of the time, the aftermarket replacements are inferior to OE.

Truck is definitely stopping smoother. It had a lot of shutter as the front brakes and rotors were shot.
Bilstein shocks are definitely an upgrade.
