The Power Stop KC5458A-36 Z36 Truck & Tow Brake Upgrade Kit is a complete front and rear brake system engineered for trucks, 4x4s, and SUVs that demand serious stopping power. Whether towing a trailer, hauling heavy loads, navigating steep mountain descents, or pushing off-road trails, this bolt-on kit delivers severe-duty braking performance without sacrificing everyday drivability.
At the heart of this kit are Power Stop's Z36 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic brake pads, which use a proprietary carbon-fiber reinforced compound to significantly increase braking force compared to standard ceramic pads. These low-dust pads feature stainless-steel shims that resist the elevated temperatures common in heavy-duty driving, and their low-dust formulation has been validated through third-party on-vehicle testing.
The pads are matched with drilled, slotted, and zinc-plated rotors that maximize heat dissipation through precision cross-drill holes and rotor slots — helping sweep away gases and heat during aggressive stops. The zinc plating provides long-lasting protection against rust and corrosion.
Completing this kit are red powder-coated performance calipers, assembled and tested in Power Stop's Chicago, IL facility. The powder coat finish provides durable corrosion resistance while adding a bold, aggressive look behind open wheels.
