What makes the Z36 pads suitable for towing and hauling?

The Z36 pads use a proprietary carbon-fiber ceramic compound. This reinforcement adds strength to the pad material, allowing it to handle the increased heat and stress generated when towing heavy loads or hauling significant weight.

Do I need any special tools or modifications for installation?

No, this kit is designed as a bolt-on upgrade for stock brakes. It includes all necessary stainless-steel installation hardware, making it a straightforward replacement for your existing components without requiring modifications.

How do the drilled and slotted rotors help?

The drilled holes and slots on the rotors allow hot gases and dust to escape from the braking surface. This improves airflow and heat dissipation, which helps prevent brake fade and maintains consistent stopping power, especially during long descents or heavy braking.

Product Details

The Z36 Truck & Tow Brake Upgrade Kit from Power Stop is built for your 1995-1999 Ford F-250 when you need more stopping power than stock. This kit is recommended for trucks that haul, tow, or see tough off-road use, giving you a solid performance boost without needing to modify your existing setup. It’s a complete package designed to work together, ensuring your brakes can handle the extra stress of heavier loads and demanding conditions.

Inside this kit, you'll find proprietary carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads. These aren't your average ceramic pads; the carbon-fiber reinforcement gives them extra strength, which is crucial for severe-duty applications like towing or driving down steep mountain grades. They're paired with drilled and slotted rotors that are zinc-plated to resist rust and help dissipate heat effectively, keeping your brakes cooler and more consistent when you need them most. The low-dust formulation has been tested to show a significant reduction in brake dust compared to OE pads, meaning less cleaning for you.

Everything you need for a straightforward bolt-on installation is included, even premium stainless-steel hardware and high-temperature ceramic brake lubricant. This makes upgrading your F-250's braking performance an accessible and affordable project.
