Upgrade the rear braking performance of your heavy-duty truck with the PowerStop Z36 Truck & Tow Brake Upgrade Kit, part number psbK8637-36. Designed for 2019-2020 Ram 3500 applications, this complete kit combines carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads, drilled and slotted rotors, stainless-steel hardware, and high-temperature ceramic lubricant for a straightforward bolt-on installation. It is engineered for drivers who tow, haul, navigate mountainous roads, or use lifted trucks in demanding conditions.
The proprietary Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Z36 brake pads reinforce a conventional ceramic compound to provide severe-duty stopping power while maintaining smooth everyday drivability. The low-dust formulation was validated through independent on-vehicle testing in Los Angeles and produced an average of 30% less dust than original-equipment pads. Stainless-steel pad shims help resist the elevated temperatures associated with heavy-duty braking, while the included installation hardware supports a clean and efficient replacement.
PowerStop drilled and slotted rotors work with the Z36 pads to improve heat dissipation and help keep brake temperatures under control during towing, hauling, and long downhill descents. Zinc plating provides additional protection against rust, and the complete design allows the kit to upgrade stock brakes without modifications. As an integrated rotor-and-pad solution from PowerStop, the psbK8637-36 delivers practical, dependable braking performance for work, recreation, and everyday driving.
