PowerStop Z36 Truck & Tow Rear Brake Pad Set Z36-2439 — Carbon-Fiber Ceramic, Low Dust

PowerStop Z36 Truck & Tow rear brake pads are a carbon-fiber ceramic upgrade built to give trucks and SUVs stronger, fade-resistant stopping power while towing, hauling, or driving off-road.

If you drive a heavy-duty truck, tow trailers or boats, or run a lifted SUV with larger tires, your braking demands exceed everyday passenger-car usage. The PowerStop Z36-2439 rear pad kit combines a low-dust ceramic compound reinforced with carbon fibers and stainless-steel hardware to deliver more consistent braking force, reduce noise and vibration, and simplify installation as a direct-fit replacement for compatible Toyota and Lexus models.

How do these pads improve stopping performance when towing or hauling?

The Z36 compound is engineered for higher thermal stability and bite than standard OE pads, helping resist fade during long descents or heavy towing. Carbon-fiber reinforcement increases friction consistency at elevated temperatures while remaining quiet under normal driving.

• Carbon-fiber ceramic formulation for stronger, repeatable initial bite
• Reduced brake fade under sustained loads and steep grades
• Low dust output for cleaner wheels during frequent heavy use
• Stainless-steel shims to dampen vibration and minimize noise

What makes installation straightforward for a DIYer?

This kit is a true bolt-on upgrade—no machining or caliper changes required. PowerStop includes stainless-steel installation hardware sized for direct fitment on the listed rear applications, so the swap from OE pads is fast and repeatable with basic tools.

• Complete rear pad set plus necessary stainless-steel hardware included
• Direct-fit design matches factory mounting points and clearances
• Simple pad orientation and shim placement reduce install time
• Ideal for home mechanics familiar with brake service procedures

Which vehicles does this exact kit fit and why is fitment important?

This Z36-2439 kit is tailored for specific rear brake applications across Toyota and Lexus trucks and SUVs. Confirming fitment prevents ordering the wrong profile or pad thickness, ensuring correct wear characteristics and safe clearance with factory calipers and wheels.

• Rear fitment for Lexus GX550 (2024–2025) and LX600 (2022–2025)
• Compatible with Lexus LX700h (2025–2026), Toyota 4Runner (2025), Land Cruiser (2024–2025)
• Also fits Toyota Sequoia (2023–2026), Tacoma (2024–2025), and Tundra (2022–2026)
• Always verify vehicle-year and axle position before purchase

What durability and warranty protections are included?

PowerStop designs the Z36 line for heavy-duty use, combining wear resistance with fade control. The kit ships with a limited warranty to provide performance protection and buyer confidence over initial service life.

• Carbon-fiber ceramic construction for extended pad life under load
• Stainless-steel hardware resists corrosion and maintains secure fitment
• Backed by a 30-day/12-month/12,000-mile limited Performance Protection Warranty
• Engineered to maintain everyday drivability and low noise levels

Who is this for: The PowerStop Z36-2439 rear Truck & Tow pad set is aimed at truck and SUV owners who routinely tow trailers or boats, operate in mountainous terrain, drive modified or lifted vehicles with larger wheels and tires, or simply want a more robust, fade-resistant braking solution than standard OE rear pads. If you need a direct-fit, DIY-friendly upgrade that balances quieter everyday use with heavy-duty stopping capability, this kit is designed for your application.
