The Power Stop K5940-36 Z36 Truck & Tow Brake Upgrade Kit is a complete front and rear brake system engineered to handle the added demands of towing, hauling, mountainous driving, and lifted trucks. This all-inclusive kit delivers a significant upgrade over stock OE brakes with components designed to work together as a system for maximum stopping performance and long-term durability.
Z36 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads
The proprietary Carbon-Fiber Ceramic pad formula reinforces a standard ceramic compound with carbon fiber to enhance strength and handle heavier loads. These pads deliver a 17% higher coefficient of friction than original equipment while resisting brake fade under extreme operating conditions. Low-dust performance is validated through third-party on-vehicle testing, averaging 30% less dust versus OE pads. Stainless-steel pad shims resist the elevated temperatures common in heavy-duty applications and provide virtually noise-free braking.
Drilled & Slotted Rotors with Zinc Dichromate Plating
Cross-drilled and slotted rotors maximize heat dissipation to keep brake temperatures in check during long descents, aggressive driving, and high-load towing scenarios. Precision drill holes allow for maximum rotor cooling, while slots expel gas and debris from the pad surface. All rotors (excluding hub assemblies) are coated in Silver Zinc Dichromate plating for long-lasting rust and corrosion resistance.
