The Power Stop KC5142-36 Z36 Truck & Tow Brake Upgrade Kit is a complete, bolt-on braking solution engineered specifically for trucks, 4x4s, and SUVs that work hard and demand reliable stopping power. This all-in-one kit includes drilled and slotted rotors, Z36 carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads, red powder coated calipers, and all necessary premium stainless-steel hardware for a straightforward installation.
Z36 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads
Power Stop's proprietary carbon-fiber ceramic pad formula reinforces a standard ceramic compound to deliver severe-duty stopping power without sacrificing everyday drivability. The low-dust formulation — verified through third-party on-vehicle testing — keeps wheels looking clean while stainless-steel shims and a chamfered and slotted pad design ensure quiet, noise-free braking performance.
Drilled & Slotted Zinc-Plated Rotors
The cross-drilled and slotted rotor surface maximizes heat dissipation and keeps brake temperatures in check during demanding use — especially critical on long downhill descents. Precision drill holes facilitate rotor cooling, while the slots continuously sweep away gas, debris, and moisture to maintain a clean friction surface. A Silver Zinc Dichromate coating provides lasting protection against rust and corrosion.
Red Powder Coated Calipers
Each caliper in this kit is expertly remanufactured, lubricated, pressure tested, and finished in a performance-red powder coat at Power Stop's Chicago, IL facility. The easy-to-clean powder coating resists corrosion and extends caliper service life — and looks great behind open wheels.
