The Power Stop CPK5185-36 Z36 Truck & Tow Brake Kit with Powder Coated Calipers is a complete, bolt-on brake upgrade engineered for trucks, SUVs, and 4x4s that demand severe-duty stopping performance. Designed to handle the added stress of towing, hauling, mountainous driving, and lifted truck applications, this all-in-one kit delivers up to 20% more stopping power over stock brakes.
At the heart of this kit are the proprietary Z36 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic brake pads, which reinforce a low-dust ceramic compound with carbon fiber to provide extreme stopping power while maintaining everyday drivability. Pad surfaces are thermally scorched at the factory for a fast, reliable break-in. Stainless-steel shims and a chamfered, slotted pad design work together to keep braking virtually noise-free.
The included drilled and slotted rotors are cast from G3000 metallurgy to strict OE tolerances and coated with Silver Zinc Dichromate plating for long-lasting rust and corrosion resistance. Precision beveled drill holes maximize heat dissipation and keep rotor temperatures down during aggressive or sustained braking, while the slots sweep away dust, gas, and debris for consistent pad-to-rotor contact.
Rounding out the kit are powder coated performance calipers, finished in an electrostatic high-heat powder coat to resist corrosion and provide a bold appearance behind open wheels. Each caliper is fully rebuilt, 100% pressure tested, and includes new bleed screws, hardware, pins, and high-temperature EPDM rubber seals for superior durability and consistent performance.
