High-Performance Brake Upgrade Kit for HD Ram Trucks

When you’re towing heavy loads, hauling equipment, or taking your Ram 2500 or 3500 off-road, you need brakes that can handle the extra stress. The PowerStop Z36 Truck & Tow Rear Brake Kit is designed specifically for hardworking trucks, giving you the stopping power and durability needed for demanding conditions. Whether you’re pulling a trailer through the mountains or navigating rough terrain, these brakes are built to perform. Upgrading your rear brakes is just as important as upgrading the front. While the front handles most of the braking force, the rear plays a crucial role in maintaining balance, especially when carrying a heavy payload or towing. Factory brakes often struggle with heat buildup under stress, which can lead to brake fade and longer stopping distances. The Z36 kit solves this with high-performance, drilled and slotted rotors that dissipate heat more efficiently than stock. This means better braking consistency, even on long downhill grades or during repeated stops with a loaded truck.

Premium Brake Pads with Heavy-Duty Hardware

The included brake pads are made from a carbon-fiber reinforced ceramic compound. This gives you severe-duty stopping power without sacrificing smooth, quiet braking for everyday driving. Unlike traditional metallic pads, these provide strong braking performance without excessive noise or dust buildup, keeping your wheels cleaner. To further enhance reliability, the stainless-steel shims help prevent vibrations and ensure quiet operation. Durability is another key focus of this kit. The rotors are zinc-plated to resist rust and corrosion, making them ideal for trucks that see harsh weather, muddy trails, or salted winter roads. Every kit includes premium stainless-steel hardware, a new pin bushing kit, and high-temp brake lubricant, ensuring a complete and hassle-free installation. With a direct bolt-on design, you can install these brakes without any modifications, getting back on the road with confidence.
