Title: Best upgrade ever!
Review: I have been driving with these on my 2012 RAM since 2016, and I have gone through 2 sets of pads in the front. Hands down, this is the best investment somebody could make for a RAM pickup. The OEM brakes were sloshy and fairly noisy. This upgrade stops the truck on a dime, and is super quiet. The breaks get stickier as they warm up. So the first stop sign in the early morning is a bit slick, but by the 2nd or 3rd stop sign, the brakes are nice and sticky. This helps tremendously with towing. The slotted rotors look amazing, but more importantly, they serve the purpose of keeping the rotors cool. Highly recommended upgrade. I will never go back to OEM!Added note, make sure you go through the proper steps to break in the pads. The instructions come in the box.Functionality: AMAZINGValue for the money: BEST VALUE EVER!!Fit: PerfectFeel: Show StopperThese will not disappoint, especially if youâre upgrading from OEM.

Title: Tons of added stopping power to my RAM
Review: Got the kit for the front and back brakes and installed them a couple weeks after. The kit comes with almost everything you need, but I needed more lubricant for the pin boots than what they supplied. Other than that, it had everything I needed to get these installed. Did the rotor & pad install in about 3 hours for all 4 wheels. Looks great, assembled easily, and after I broke the brakes in I noticed a ton of extra braking power that I didnât have before and no noise. I would definitely buy these again and recommend them to anyone driving a truck or large SUV.

Title: They Fit Perfect & Work Great !
Review: Great Product. Fitment was perfect, no issues at all. Quality is top notch. I ended up installing them myself. Initially was going to get the dealership to do it but way too much $ for stock brakes and I got another shop to quote it and still way too much $. I am not cheap but prices for install were not fair. I have jack stands and I have a 3.5 on floor jack and the tools so I dedicated a saturday to just get it done plus cleaned up stuff around there and calipers while I was at it. Had a caliper press tool that pushes the piston back in which is a great tool to have, just make sure the brake reservoir cap is open and put a rag around it so brake fluid spills out onto the rag as you press in all the caliper pistons. But yes very happy with them and now about 2 weeks later they feel even better as they have bedded in a bit. And I saved a lot of $ on labor plus made sure I left everything clean.

Title: Ease of install
Review: Great upgrade no issues of warping after 6 months and I drive hard in Florida rain so definitely had its share of testing. Everything u need is in the box even new rubber fittings. I do recommend picking up extra brake grease as these are definitely limited. Old breaks were squeaky and warped. These are quite and stop at least 2 times as well

Title: Awesome kit, decent price, fast shipping
Review: I bought these for my 2020 ram 1500 warlock, my brakes were still in decent shape but putting these on made it feel like an entirely new truck, most important thing is to MAKE SURE YOU BED THEM IN. I ended up doing two heat cycles for mine. Smooth, quiet, and stops better then it ever has. Take your time, use all the parts even if you feel original are in good shape. A little pricey compared to look a like type but ask yourself if you, your family, truck and others around you are worth a few bucks more. Will update over time my review.

Title: Work amazing, but errors in shipping had to be fixed
Review: Overall: Shipping is a C-, order accuracy is a C, Product quality is an A+, Customer Service is a B. Value is an A. Overall rating is a B. As for ease of install, if you're not experienced, you need to get a friend or watch several videos to make sure you understand how to do it. Make a checklist to go down as you complete each step to!Now, on to the review - first, there was an issue: I ordered this product (front & back rotors and pads) for my 2017 RAM. When the box arrived, it was beat to all hell, and barely hanging together. Weight was close to 100 lbs, and I know it ticked off the shipping company. Sorry about that UPS, but come on - that's not my fault!... Anyway, parts were no worse for the abuse, and were all there (at least - it seemed that way). I did the front brakes first, got them done, and went to do the rear brakes the next day. Got the first rotor on, and went to put the pads in... only, it turns out, it was another set of FRONT pads. PowerStop had shipped me 2x sets of front pads and no rear pads! I checked and verified that they had sent me a set of front and a set of rear rotors, so at least that was good. I emailed PowerStop, then called the next day, and they sent out a set of rear pads - which got there at the end of the week, but in time to do the rear brakes that weekend. PowerStop made it (mostly) right, but they should've just chalked up the extra set of front pads they sent me as a loss, for all the pain and hassle I had to go through (having to remove the new rotor, put the old one back on, and then put the old pads in so I could drive the next day for work, and then, when I finally got the new rear pads, go through the rear end brake job again!) rather than ask me to ship them back.Now, as to performance, these brakes are FANTASTIC! The truck stops on a DIME from 65 MPH, and the look is sharp and looks bad ass. I highly recommend the product, but would like to see the company do a better job with customer service and shipping.

Title: Great Brakes!
Review: Once this Power Stop Z36 brake kit was installed on my 2019 RAM 1500 Classic Lone Star Silver Edition pickup truck, the improvement in braking was immediate. Very smooth braking with less effort! Highly recommend this brand of brake parts.

Title: Great quality
Review: Received my package from Amazon in perfect condition. And itâs a very heavy box! Everything was packaged neatly.I ordered the extreme duty pads and drilled and slotted rotors. I cleaned up and painted my Oem calipers.Everything fit perfectly. The quality of the parts seem to be very good.After installing I took the time and did the recommended break in. The brakes are noise free and work well. (Make sure you have the slots going in the right direction, wheels come marked)I was worried after purchasing and reading some negative reviews. But I can find nothing to complain about. If you are on the fence, go for it. I definitely recommend this brand.

Review: I had these rotors and brake pad kit on my wish list. I waited until the price dropped which didn't take long. Paid $566 + tax so it was great!. I installed them on my Ram truck and they fit perfectly. I did the usual brake test after installing it. So far the rotors and pads are quiet and stops on a dime! When they delivered it (Purolator) they had left it on my driveway near the front door. I don't blame them because it was really heavy! I mean four rotors and brake pads all in one box! The only hiccup was that they included the wrong rubber boots, should be a total of 8 boots but I only received 4. However spoke to Amazon customer service and they quickly refunded me back the money for the boots. Great service! I love these rotors and pads! I will have to see how they perform in the colder weather but for now I'm really happy and satisfied!

Review: Habe das Set für meinen 2015er RAM Sport 5,7l gekauft. Einbau super unproblematisch, Bremswirkung nach einbremsen super!!! Besser als original Mopar. Das Sicherheitsgefühl ist wirklich viel besser.Als Empfehlung: Den Topf der Scheibe mit Hammerite schwarz pinseln. Sieht länger schöner aus als das silber.
