The Power Stop CPK5965-36 Z36 Truck & Tow Brake Kit with Powder Coated Calipers is a complete, all-in-one brake upgrade engineered for trucks, SUVs, and 4x4s that haul heavy loads, tow trailers, tackle mountainous terrain, or run upsized wheel and tire combinations. Every component in the kit is designed to work together to deliver superior stopping power over stock brakes while maintaining everyday drivability.
Z36 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads form the heart of this kit. The proprietary carbon-fiber reinforced ceramic compound strengthens the friction material to handle heavier loads and higher heat, resulting in severe-duty stopping performance with low dust output and virtually no brake noise. Stainless-steel shims with a chamfered and slotted pad design further resist heat transfer and eliminate squeal.
Drilled & Slotted Zinc-Plated Rotors are precision-cast from G3000 grade metallurgy to OE tolerances. The drill holes facilitate maximum rotor cooling during extreme braking, while the rounded slots sweep away gas, debris, and moisture to maintain a clean contact patch between pad and rotor. Silver zinc dichromate plating provides long-lasting protection against rust and corrosion.
Powder Coated Brake Calipers are assembled, pressure-tested, and inspected at Power Stop's Chicago, IL facility. Each caliper features a durable electrostatic high-temperature red powder coat finish that resists rust and corrosion while delivering an aggressive look behind open wheels. High-temperature EPDM rubber dust boots and premium silicone lubricant ensure smooth, reliable operation in the harshest conditions.
