What is the main benefit of the Z26 Street Warrior brake pads?

The Z26 pads use a carbon-fiber ceramic compound that enhances heat dissipation. This means they can handle higher temperatures without losing stopping power, making them ideal for performance applications.

What does the powder coating on the calipers do?

The high-temperature powder coating on the calipers serves two main purposes. It protects the calipers from corrosion and helps them maintain their appearance over time, adding a visual enhancement behind your wheels.

Does this kit include everything needed for installation?

Yes, this kit is designed as a bolt-on upgrade and includes the pads, rotors, calipers, stainless-steel installation hardware, and high-temperature ceramic brake lubricant for a complete installation.

Product Details

If you're looking to give your 2002-2005 Ford Thunderbird some serious stopping power, this Power Stop Z26 Street Warrior Rear Brake Kit is a solid choice. It's designed for cars with higher horsepower and performance modifications, so it can handle the demands of a spirited drive. This kit replaces your stock rear brakes with everything you need for a complete upgrade, including pads, rotors, and calipers, all in one box.

The heart of this kit is the combination of Power Stop's Z26 carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads and their drilled and slotted rotors. The carbon-fiber ceramic pads are built to handle more heat than standard ceramic pads, which means more consistent braking performance, especially at higher speeds. The drilled and slotted rotors aren't just for looks; the slots help sweep away gas and dust, while the drilling aids in cooling. Together, they help reduce brake fade and improve stopping distances. Power Stop also mentions that these pads produce about 30% less dust than OE pads, so your wheels will stay cleaner for longer. The rotors are zinc-plated to resist rust, keeping them looking good and functioning well.

You also get red powder-coated calipers included in this kit. Not only do they add a splash of color behind your wheels, but the high-temperature powder coating also helps protect them from corrosion and keeps them looking sharp. This kit is a bolt-on upgrade, meaning it's designed to fit directly onto your Thunderbird's stock brake mounting points without needing any modifications. It also comes with stainless-steel hardware and high-temperature ceramic brake lubricant to ensure a smooth and durable installation.
