Overview:

The PowerStop Z36 Truck & Tow Brake Kit with Powder Coated Calipers is a comprehensive rear brake upgrade designed specifically for Jeep Grand Cherokee models from 1999 to 2004. Engineered for trucks, 4x4s, and SUVs that demand reliable stopping power under heavy loads, this kit is ideal for drivers who tow trailers, haul cargo, or tackle challenging off-road conditions. It offers a bolt-on solution that enhances braking performance while maintaining everyday drivability and reducing brake dust.

Whether you’re navigating steep mountain descents or hauling equipment for work or recreation, the Z36 kit delivers severe-duty braking capability with durable components built to withstand demanding conditions.

Key Features:

This all-in-one brake upgrade kit combines advanced materials and thoughtful engineering to provide superior stopping power and long-lasting performance:

• Proprietary Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Z36 brake pads offer enhanced strength and durability over standard ceramic pads, optimized for heavier loads and towing applications.
• Drilled and slotted rotors maximize heat dissipation to reduce brake fade during extended braking, especially on mountainous terrain.
• Red powder coated calipers provide corrosion resistance and a striking appearance behind your wheels.
• Includes premium stainless-steel hardware and high-temperature ceramic brake lubricant for reliable installation and operation.
• Low-dust ceramic pads reduce brake dust buildup by approximately 30% compared to original equipment, keeping wheels cleaner.
• Stainless-steel pad shims resist high temperatures common in heavy-duty braking scenarios.
• Zinc-plated rotors offer enhanced protection against rust and corrosion for extended rotor life.
• Designed as a direct bolt-on replacement with no modifications required for easy installation.

Construction & Design:

The Z36 Truck & Tow Brake Kit is engineered with high-quality materials to meet the rigorous demands of towing and off-road use. The Carbon-Fiber Ceramic brake pads combine the heat resistance and low dust characteristics of ceramic with added carbon-fiber reinforcement for improved strength and longevity. The rotors feature a drilled and slotted design that promotes rapid heat dissipation and helps maintain consistent braking performance under stress.

Calipers are finished with a durable high-temperature red powder coating that protects against corrosion and enhances visual appeal. Stainless-steel hardware and shims are included to withstand the elevated temperatures and stresses of heavy-duty applications, ensuring reliable operation over time.

Performance & Sound

The Z36 brake pads deliver firm, confident stopping power with minimal brake dust and noise. The drilled and slotted rotors help reduce brake fade by efficiently managing heat buildup during prolonged braking events, such as towing or descending steep grades. This combination provides consistent pedal feel and improved safety without compromising everyday drivability or generating excessive noise.

Installation & Fitment:

This kit is designed for a straightforward, bolt-on installation on the rear brakes of Jeep Grand Cherokee models from 1999 through 2004, including Laredo, Limited, Overland, and Special Edition trims. No modifications or special tools are required, making it an accessible upgrade for DIY enthusiasts and professional installers alike. All necessary hardware and lubricant are included to ensure a smooth installation process.
