Give your truck the confident, severe-duty stops it deserves with the PowerStop Z36 Truck & Tow Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Set (Z36-821, also written Z36821). This is a front-axle pad set that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2000-2002 Dodge Ram 2500 and 2000-2002 Dodge Ram 3500 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level applications. Designed as an upgrade over stock brakes for those who tow, haul, and head off-road, it pairs a low-dust ceramic formula with carbon fiber to strengthen the compound.
- Carbon-fiber ceramic formulation: engineered to deliver severe-duty stopping power for trucks, SUVs, and 4x4's, with a low-dust formula verified in 3rd-party on-vehicle testing.
- Positive mold technology & thermal-scorched surface: promote consistent wear and a fast break-in.
- Chamfered, slotted, and multi-layer stainless-steel shims: help dissipate heat for virtually noise-free braking.
- Powder-coated backing plate: resists rust and corrosion for extended pad life.
Premium stainless-steel hardware and ceramic brake lubricant are included to make the brake job easier. For even, balanced braking, it's best practice to service both sides of the axle together.
