The Power Stop KC5143-36 Z36 Truck & Tow Brake Upgrade Kit is a complete, bolt-on brake system designed for trucks, 4x4s, and SUVs that demand serious stopping power. Whether you're towing a trailer, hauling heavy loads on the jobsite, or pushing your rig on an off-road trail, this all-inclusive kit delivers a significant performance upgrade over factory brakes without requiring any modifications.
Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads:
The Z36 kit features Power Stop's proprietary Carbon-Fiber Ceramic brake pad formula, which reinforces a traditional ceramic compound with carbon fiber for enhanced strength and braking performance. These pads are engineered to handle heavier loads and higher operating temperatures while remaining low-dust and fade-resistant. Low-dust performance is validated through third-party on-vehicle testing, showing an average of 30% less dust versus OE pads.
Drilled & Slotted Zinc-Plated Rotors:
Precision drill holes allow for maximum rotor cooling, keeping brake temperatures in check during demanding conditions like long mountain descents. The rounded slots sweep away gas, debris, and moisture to maintain a clean contact patch for consistent, smooth braking. All rotors are cast using G3000 metallurgy with strict OE tolerances for a perfect bolt-on fit, and finished with a Silver Zinc Dichromate plating for long-lasting rust and corrosion protection.
Powder Coated Performance Calipers:
The included calipers are finished in a signature red powder coat, applied, assembled, and pressure-tested at Power Stop's Chicago, IL facility. The powder coating resists corrosion, extends caliper life, and delivers a bold look behind open wheels.
