Your vehicle’s brakes are one of its most essential systems. Every vehicle can benefit from decreased braking distance, enhanced stopping power, and improved safety.
On hard-working pickups or heavily modified applications, beefed-up brakes aren’t just a matter of performance but of safety. When you install oversized tires on your pickup or performance components, it’s essential to install brakes that counteract the added rotational mass and inertia, ensuring you have enough stopping power to avoid collisions.
Your vehicle’s brake system is just that, a system—meaning it's made of several components that all work together, including:
Brake calipers are the driving force that pushes the pads into the rotors. Calipers feature anywhere between one and six pistons driven by pneumatic pressure from the power brake booster and master cylinder. As you press the brake pedal, brake fluid gets forced into the caliper, where it extends the pistons, thus pushing the brake pads against the rotor and creating the friction responsible for stopping your vehicle.
Why we love it:
Lightweight aluminum caliper construction
Thick-walled stainless steel pistons
Semi-metallic brake pads included with each set
Bolts onto stock spindles
Available in clear anodized, black, or red finishes
Made in the USA
Limited 1-year warranty
Brake pads consist of a high-friction material on a metal backing plate. Pads are inserted into your vehicle’s brake calipers, where they're compressed against the rotors when you press on your brake pedal to create the friction required to bring your vehicle to a stop. Multiple formulations are available, including ceramic, semi-metallic, and organic.
Why we love it:
Top-of-the-line brake pad
Backing plate features NUCAP NRS hook technology
High-volume Vee grooves help to vent and remove dust
NUCAP insulator shims for noise-free braking
Effective stopping power above 1400 degrees F
Performs great at low temperatures
Longest lifespan of any EBC brake pads
Red brake-in surface coating for instantly safe braking after installation
Limited warranty
Brake rotors, or brake discs, connect to the vehicle’s hub. The rotors provide a contact surface for brake pads. While most rotors have a flat, featureless surface, performance models feature milled slots, drilled holes, or a combination of the two to reduce heat, prevent glazing, and improve performance.
Why we love it:
Durable G3000 grade gray iron castings from premier foundries
Silver zinc plated to resist corrosion and rust
Drill holes are designed to keep brake rotors up to 180 degrees cooler
Slots are designed to clear rotors of dust and gas for consistent pad contact
Increase brake performance
Add an undeniably good look to custom or stock wheels
3-year | 36,000-mile warranty
Caliper covers don’t offer any performance benefits, but they do allow you to customize your vehicle and hide what can be an unsightly part of the brake system. Multiple colors and logos are available.
Why we love it:
6061-T6 aerospace-grade aluminum construction
TIG welded for excellent durability
Powder-coat finish protects from rust and corrosion
Available in multiple finish options
Stainless steel fastening system
Limited 3-year warranty
Made in the USA
