Upgrade your truck or van's rear brakes with the PowerStop Z36 Truck & Tow Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Set (P/N Z36-2201, also written Z362201), a REAR-axle pad set built for those who tow, haul, and head off-road. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 2019-2020 Freightliner Sprinter 1500; 2019-2021 Freightliner Sprinter 2500, 3500, and 3500XD; 2024 Mercedes-Benz eSprinter; 2019-2023 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 1500; and 2019-2024 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500, 3500, and 3500XD — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full engine-level fitment.
- Carbon-fiber ceramic formula: a low-dust ceramic compound infused with carbon fiber, engineered to provide severe-duty stopping power for trucks, SUVs, and 4x4s.
- Quiet, clean operation: chamfered and slotted pads with multi-layer stainless-steel shims for increased heat dissipation and virtually noise-free braking; low-dust performance verified in third-party on-vehicle testing.
- Built to last: positive mold technology for consistent wear, a thermal-scorched surface for fast break-in, and a powder-coated backing plate that resists rust and corrosion.
- Hardware included: premium stainless-steel hardware and ceramic brake lubricant for an easier install.
This set covers the rear axle; for even, balanced braking, it's best practice to replace both rear pads together as a matched set.
