PowerStop Front Brake Pads Z36 Truck & Tow for Ford F-150 / Expedition / Navigator — Carbon-Fiber Ceramic, Low-Dust

These front brake pads are designed specifically for late-model Ford and Lincoln full-size trucks and SUVs, combining a low-dust ceramic formula with carbon-fiber reinforcement and stainless-steel shims. The kit includes all stainless installation hardware for a straightforward replacement, so you get improved stopping power and reduced noise without modifying your brake system.

How do these pads improve braking when I’m towing or hauling?

The Z36 compound blends ceramic materials with carbon fibers to resist fade under sustained heavy use. That composition gives firmer pedal feel and shorter stopping distances compared with many OE-rated pads while keeping dust low for cleaner wheels.

• Carbon-fiber reinforcement for heat resistance during long descents
• Low-dust ceramic formulation to reduce wheel buildup
• Stainless-steel shims to suppress vibration and brake squeal

Will they fit my vehicle and are they difficult to install?

The Z36-2087 kit is engineered as a direct front-pad replacement for specified Ford Expedition, F-150, and Lincoln Navigator model years—no machining or bracket changes needed. The package supplies stainless-steel installation hardware so most do-it-yourselfers can complete the swap with standard tools.

• Direct-fit design for listed model years—bolt-on upgrade
• Includes all necessary stainless installation hardware
• Installation achievable with common shop tools and basic brake knowledge

How do these pads perform on lifted or modified trucks?

Z36 Truck & Tow pads are built to handle increased loads and altered vehicle dynamics from larger tires, wheels, or suspension lifts. Their compound and backing components are selected to maintain consistent performance despite the additional stress of modified setups.

• Formulated for heavier vehicle loads and larger wheel/tire combinations
• Resists brake fade during repeated hard stops or steep terrain
• Durable construction that supports fleet and off-highway use

What warranty and longevity can I expect from these brake pads?

PowerStop offers a practical limited warranty covering short-term defects to give buyers confidence in their upgrade. While individual pad life varies with use, the Z36 compound focuses on balanced longevity and performance for demanding driving conditions.

• Covered by PowerStop’s 30-Day / 12-Month / 12,000-Mile Limited Warranty
• Designed for extended life under towing and heavy-duty use
• Lower dust and stainless hardware reduce ancillary maintenance

Who this is for: Drivers of compatible Ford and Lincoln trucks and SUVs who tow trailers, haul heavy loads, or run modified wheel and suspension setups and need a stronger, quieter brake pad than standard OE replacements. If you want a direct-fit front pad upgrade that emphasizes heat resistance, reduced dust, and straightforward installation, the PowerStop Z36 Truck & Tow front kit is engineered for those demands.
