Power Stop's Z36 Truck & Tow Performance Brake Upgrade Pad, Rotor, Drum and Shoe Kits offer superior stopping power that is demanded by those that Tow/Haul, as well as the off-road enthusiast. Any time you add weight to a vehicle by hauling a load, towing a trailer, or simply adding a larger wheel/tire combination, you change the operating conditions of your stock brake package. Those operating conditions may exceed the ability of the stock braking components. The Power Stop Z36 Truck & Tow Performance Brake Kit contains specifically matched components designed to address the increase in heat and required brake torque that result. The Drilled & Slotted rotors will reduce the heat and the Z36 Extreme Truck & Tow brake pads will provide the extra needed brake torque to bring your hauler to a halt quickly.
Features & Benefits:
Rotors, pads & hardware are engineered to work together to increase stopping power, improve durability & eliminate dust
Proprietary Z36 carbon-fiber ceramic pads enhance the strength of a typical ceramic brake pad compound to handle heavier loads
Rotors (except for hub assemblies) are zinc plated for maximum protection against rust
Drilled & Slotted performance rotors for maximum cooling
Premium shoes are made from 100% new steel, plus are cam ground and chamfered to ensure precise fit and noise-free operation
Premium drums are coated in a silver rust preventative paint that is oven cured so it keeps looking good despite high temperatures
Comes with everything you need to get the job done, including stainless steel installation hardware, shoe installation hardware, adjuster kits (where available) and high temperature ceramic brake lubricant
Brand new shoe hold-down hardware ensures that you don't have to deal with the old worn out/broken springs, pins or cups
Installation Tips
Suspend the caliper from the suspension using a Caliper Hanger to prevent damage to the brake hose
Before installing the rotor, clean the hub face with a Wire Brush to remove rust buildup and apply Copper Anti Seize to prevent future buildup. Rust or debris on the hub can cause rotor runout and lead to wheel vibration
Apply brake lube to caliper pins, clips, the edges of the brake pad mounting tabs, and the back side of the brake pads to ensure noise free braking. DO NOT apply lube to the friction side of the brake pads
Use a Caliper Piston Compressor to retract the caliper piston(s) and make room for the new, thicker brake pads
Open the master cylinder reservoir during piston compression to prevent pressure buildup. Keep an eye on the Brake Fluid level to ensure it does not overflow
After the job is complete, pump the brake pedal several times to push the caliper piston back up against the pads to ensure proper brake function
