The Power Stop CPK2405-36 Z36 Truck & Tow Brake Upgrade Kit is a complete rear brake kit 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 a significant upgrade over stock OEM brakes with a straightforward, bolt-on installation requiring no modifications.
At the core of this kit are Power Stop's proprietary Z36 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic brake pads, which reinforce a standard ceramic compound with carbon fiber to deliver a higher coefficient of friction than original equipment. The result is superior stopping power and resistance to brake fade under heavy loads — without sacrificing everyday drivability or generating excessive dust.
The kit's cross-drilled and slotted rotors are precision-machined from G3000-grade cast iron and finished with a silver zinc dichromate plating to protect against rust and corrosion. Beveled drill holes and rounded slots maximize heat dissipation and sweep away gas, water, and dust from the rotor surface for consistent, confident braking performance.
Completing the kit are red powder coated remanufactured brake calipers, professionally assembled, pressure tested, and lubricated at Power Stop's Chicago, IL facility. The powder coat finish resists corrosion and provides an aggressive appearance behind open wheels.
