Z36 Truck & Tow Performance Brake Kit
The Z36 Truck & Tow Performance Brake Kit offer superior stopping power that is demanded by those that Tow/Haul, as well as the off-road enthusiast. Any time you add weight to a vehicle by hauling a load, towing a trailer, or simply adding a larger wheel/tire combination, you change the operating conditions of your stock brake package. Those operating conditions may exceed the ability of the stock braking components. This kit is includes perfectly matched components designed to produce the brake torque that is needed due to the increase in wheel diameter or load. The Drilled & Slotted rotors will reduce the heat and the Z36 Extreme Truck & Tow brake pads will provide the extra stopping power to bring your hauler to a halt quickly.
Recommended For You
- Towing / Hauling (even once a year)
- Larger Tire / Wheel Upgrades
- Drive through hilly / mountainous terrain
- Want to improve the overall braking of your vehicle

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Packaging was ok, although I was a little concerned with the thin cardboard protecting these rotors from a overzealous delivery driver. Inside you get two rotors, specific to each side, brake pads, shims, a generous tube of anti-squeal, the retaining clip, and the pad return spring that you stick into the slid pins. The included hardware seemed to be stainless steel but I could be wrong.
Install is the same as replacing your normal brakes and rotors. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions and to measure the rotor runout before mounting the wheel back on. I used a machinists dial from Harbor Freight (~$40). Also be sure to follow the break-in procedure to build up a proper amount of resin on the rotor.
The vibrations I had previously experienced are no longer an issue. Braking seems to have improved and even under hard braking the brakes do not lock as they did with my previous rotors and pads, Duralast brand. Fade doesn't appear to be an issue but I've been taking it easy for the first couple hundred miles. I plan to update my review at 1k, 3k, 5k and 10k miles.
Based upon these initial impressions, I would buy this brake kit again.
Ordered and got them and everything looked great. Pulled the wheels, pads, and rotors off, compressed the calipers and started installing these. First thing I noticed was that these pads seemed really thin for new pads, about 2mm less material than oe pads. The pads floated around in the calipers due to the lack of material. Usually a new set of pads/rotors will be a tight fit in a fully compressed caliper.
Went through and got everything installed after cleaning the pads and rotors with brake cleaner.
Fired up the rig and pump the pedal a few times to tighten up the pads.
Took it down the street and did a couple of break in accerations and slow stops. The stopping power lacked from what I was used to but I figured it would get better once the pads got broke in and or seated.
Later that day I was on the freeway and exited with mild brake pressure. I got a nasty shimmy in the front end. I thought how could this be possible that the rotors had warped already.
I continued to drive it and the following weekend headed up to the mountains to go camping. Coming down a hill/road that I have been down hundreds of times, the brakes started smoking. They were hot. I was barely using them and had the transmission in a lower gear. I almost hit the car in front of me when Coming up to the stop sign at the bottom of the hill. I had to grab a handful of e brake to stop.
I looked at my buddy and told him that these brakes were garbage.
That's when I decided to send them back.
Now that was two weeks ago and I pulled them off today and replaced them with Hawk lts pads and centric drilled/slotted rotors. This combo is much better than these power stop brakes and it cost a few bucks less.
IF you want brakes that work when you need them, then get something besides these power stops.
I have done dozens of brake jobs, I doubt it was user error.
Check out the pics of the pad difference. You are getting short changed by these power stop pads.
- Very easy install
- Excellent, smooth stopping
- Will be buying again
Just be aware that the inner and outer pads are different. The outer pads will fit on the inner side, but the inner pads will not fit on the outer side.
So, they caused catastrophic brake failure and an accident because they sent the wrong rotors.
I’m buying EBC brakes from now on.
I will never buy Power Stop again!
Beware!
