The Power Stop K4033-36 Z36 Truck & Tow Brake Upgrade Kit is a complete, bolt-on brake system engineered specifically for trucks, 4x4s, and SUVs that face demanding towing, hauling, and off-road conditions. Every component in this kit is precision-matched to work together, delivering a significant upgrade in stopping power over stock brakes without requiring any modifications.
Z36 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads
The proprietary Z36 carbon-fiber ceramic formula goes beyond a standard ceramic compound, reinforcing it with carbon fiber to handle the heavier loads common in truck and tow applications. The result is severe-duty stopping performance with low dust output — validated through third-party on-vehicle testing showing an average of 30% less dust versus OE pads. Stainless steel pad shims resist the elevated temperatures typical of heavy-duty use, and the powder-coated backing plate resists rust and corrosion for long-term durability.
Drilled, Slotted & Zinc-Plated Rotors
Precision drill holes maximize rotor cooling during extreme braking events, while the slots continuously sweep away gas and debris to maintain consistent pad-to-rotor contact. Rotors are cast from G3000-grade metallurgy to OE tolerances and finished with a silver zinc plating for maximum corrosion resistance.
