I put a set if the K2163-36, Z36 Rotors and pads on the front of my 2014 1500, and noticed a huge difference in braking feel and almost no dust in normal conditions. I am 100% sold on these as the best choice for me on my vehicles going forward. I am a huge fan of their coated slotted and drilled rotors too. After 18 months, 1.5 winters, and about 10, 000 miles they still look like new.

Pros:
- Low dust
- Excellent braking feel and performance
- Coated rotors

Cons:
- Nothing?

Price was very fair compared to OEM and OEM equivalent equipment

I am still running Ram OEM rotors and pads on the rear, as they just wont wear out! heh As soon as they do, I am replacing with a full kit of Power Stop slotted and drilled rears and matching pads.

Very impressed with Power Stop kit...

I went with the Z23 kit on my 2009 4x2 1500 because I wanted the vented/slotted/drilled rotors plus the red calipers. I'm running 20in SRT wheels, so the kit looks fantastic since the wheel is so open. While the Z23 kit doesn't have the performance of the other Powerstop kits, it's still head and shoulders above the OEM stuff. You're completely right that while you do still get some dust, it's not caked on like the dust from the OEM pads.

I am running Powerstop pads and rotors em with the carbon fiber ceramic mix. The full carbon ones sounded like a school bus when breaking. So far, the brakes are working great for 4, 000 miles

[Pickleram]

I got them for my power wagon, very good pad and low dust

[MM_in_Havasu]

Cool! Have a set of Powerstop slotted/drilled rotors and their 36 series "extreme" brake pads sitting in the box new to put on either my Chrysler 300C or my Challenger R/T, both cars use the same brakes.
Thanks for the video update, man!

I have these on my Ram. They are really good. too good at times.

[jeffclontz]

I'm using the Z36 on the Durango, good choice and certainly fairly low dust.

Awesome J🤳《☆》Nice upgrade Brother👍✔I went with slotted rotors & ceramic pads on my Dakota a few years ago. Braking is better than stock Dakota rotors with little to no brake dust. So far no warping but I'm not towing cross country either🖖🤓🏈

[stevenbedoy]

Love the videos brother keep up the hard work homeboy!!! Happy New Year John!!!

[sunburntodin]

I have the Z23's on my Eclipse and after seeing the extra stopping force they have I've placed an order for the Z36's. Of course their on back order but soon. Hopefully. 🤣

Hey john.. nice to see you with a video up !! I’ve been wondering when ! We’re these miles on the new pad with jus the truck itself ? No towing I’d the trailer with them yet ? Any luck finding a place yet? Hope you had a good Christmas!! When will you be doing another live stream ? Miss seeing you in the garage working seems weird lol hopefully soon bro 👍

[sunshinesallday]

Thanks for the update video and the info on the brake pads

[jacobsebastien]

I Only buy/use Power Stop Extreme z36 pads" Best Stopping Power!"

[matstang]

🤔🤔 I need some good pads for my 93 Mustang with the Cadillac Brembo brake swap. They have double bleeders one on each side. Does HELLKOTA have that or the Viper set ups

[reaver]

Highway driving doesn’t really produce the stop and go dust. Imho
Can’t stand the sponge brake pedal feeling

[cretivegarage]

glad they don't produce so much break dust ... full carbon fiber seems lit

[rigger]

John, what's going on moving wise?

[ddelavega]

Do you have experience with the power stop rotors?

[stevendobbs]

I just bought the whole set of the z36 with the slotted and drilled rotors. What paint did you use on the rotor? Also surprised to see you still running the SR-A’s. I never had good luck with them lasting or gripping very well on either of my rams.
