The Power Stop KC2187-36 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 hauling heavy loads, towing a boat or trailer, navigating steep mountain descents, or hitting the trails, this all-inclusive kit delivers severe-duty performance without compromising everyday drivability.
Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads:
The Z36 series brake pads feature a proprietary carbon-fiber ceramic formula that reinforces the compound beyond a standard ceramic pad, providing the extra braking strength needed to handle heavier loads. They generate significantly less dust than OEM pads — validated through third-party on-vehicle testing — and are engineered to operate quietly thanks to stainless-steel shims combined with a chamfered and slotted pad design.
Drilled & Slotted Rotors:
The rotors are cast from G3000 metallurgy to strict OE tolerances for a true bolt-on fit with no modifications required. Precision cross-drilled holes maximize cooling airflow to keep brake temperatures in check during extreme operating conditions, while rounded slots wipe away gas and debris to maintain a clean, consistent contact patch for safe, smooth braking. A Silver Zinc Dichromate finish protects against rust and corrosion while giving the rotors an aggressive, polished appearance behind open wheels.
Red Powder Coated Calipers:
Each caliper in this kit is powder coated in performance red, assembled, and pressure tested. The durable coating resists rust and corrosion to extend caliper life, and delivers a bold visual upgrade that stands out behind stock or custom wheels.
