What makes the Z36 brake pads different from standard ceramic pads?

The Z36 pads use a proprietary Carbon-Fiber Ceramic compound. This reinforcement enhances the strength of the pad, allowing it to handle heavier loads and severe-duty stopping requirements without sacrificing everyday drivability.

What is the benefit of drilled and slotted rotors?

Drilled and slotted rotors help keep brake temperatures down. The slots allow gases and dust to escape, while the drilling and slotting pattern maximizes surface area for heat dissipation, which is critical during heavy braking or long descents.

Does this kit come with everything needed for installation?

Yes, this is a complete kit that includes Drilled & Slotted rotors, Carbon-Fiber Ceramic brake pads, and powder-coated calipers. It also comes with premium stainless-steel installation hardware and high-temperature ceramic brake lubricant for a straightforward, bolt-on upgrade.

Product Details

Power Stop is known for making it simple for drivers to get better brakes, no matter how they use their vehicle. This Z36 Truck & Tow Brake Upgrade Kit is specifically recommended for vehicles that haul, tow, or face tough driving conditions. It’s a complete package designed to handle the extra stress that comes with those jobs, offering a significant improvement over stock brakes.

This kit includes everything you need for a straightforward bolt-on installation. You get low-dust Carbon-Fiber Ceramic brake pads, which are stronger than standard ceramic pads and built to handle heavy loads without compromising everyday drivability. They're paired with Drilled & Slotted rotors that help keep temperatures down by allowing heat to escape, which is crucial on long downhill stretches. The kit also comes with red powder-coated calipers that not only resist corrosion but also add a nice visual touch behind your wheels. For those who tow a trailer, haul equipment, or just want more reliable stopping power, this kit offers an easy and affordable performance upgrade.

The rotors are zinc-plated to protect against rust, and the kit includes stainless-steel hardware and high-temperature lubricant to ensure a smooth installation. This is a direct bolt-on upgrade, meaning no modifications are needed to your existing brake system.
