The Power Stop KC2085B-36 Z36 Truck & Tow Brake Upgrade Kit is a complete, bolt-on brake system designed for trucks, 4x4s, and SUVs that demand severe-duty stopping power. This all-inclusive kit pairs Z36 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic brake pads, drilled and slotted rotors, and powder coated calipers into one pre-matched package — everything needed for a direct, no-modification installation.
Z36 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads
Power Stop's proprietary Carbon-Fiber Ceramic formula reinforces a standard ceramic compound to handle the added stress of heavy loads. The result is severe-duty stopping power with the everyday drivability of a ceramic pad. Low-dust performance is verified through third-party, on-vehicle testing, averaging 30% less dust versus OE pads. Stainless-steel shims provide superior heat dissipation and virtually noise-free braking.
Drilled & Slotted Zinc-Plated Rotors
Precision drill holes and slots work in tandem to maximize rotor cooling — hot gases and moisture escape from between the pad and rotor surface, keeping brake temperatures down during demanding conditions like long mountain descents or extended towing. Rotors are zinc plated for long-lasting protection against rust and corrosion.
Powder Coated Calipers
All calipers are powder coated, assembled, and tested at Power Stop's Chicago, IL facility. The powder coat finish provides durable corrosion protection and delivers a sharp, aggressive look visible behind open wheels.
