What makes the Z36 pads suitable for towing and hauling?

The Z36 pads use a proprietary carbon-fiber ceramic compound. This reinforcement increases the strength of the pad material, allowing it to handle the higher temperatures and stresses associated with towing, hauling, and heavy loads without sacrificing everyday drivability.

How do the drilled and slotted rotors help?

The drilled holes and slots in the rotors allow hot gases and dust to escape from the pad surface. This helps to keep the rotors cooler, which is essential for maintaining consistent braking performance, especially during long descents or when carrying heavy loads.

Does this kit come with everything needed for installation?

Yes, this kit is designed as a complete bolt-on upgrade. It includes the Z36 brake pads, drilled and slotted rotors, premium stainless-steel installation hardware, and high-temperature ceramic brake lubricant.
