Overview
The Power Stop Z36-757 rear brake pads are Z36 Truck and Tow disc brake pads for 1999–2005 Ford F-250 Super Duty, F-350 Super Duty and Excursion.
Heavier trucks and SUVs need more bite than the original pads give, and this compound is built for that job. The Z36 friction level is 17 percent higher than OE pads.
Key features
- Carbon and ceramic friction formula
- Thermal scorched finish
- Chamfered and slotted like the OE pads
- Powdercoated backing plate
- Noise insulating shims
- Hi-temp lubricant included
- Direct fit with the stock caliper, rear position
Rear brake maintenance
Rear brakes on a full-size Super Duty or an Excursion take less load than the front on most stops, but they carry a meaningful share when the truck is pulling a trailer. Uneven rear wear is often a sign of a sticking caliper or a worn slide pin rather than a pad problem. Inspect the caliper movement each time the rear pads are changed.
Replace rear pads in full sets, never as a single side, and check the parking brake adjustment afterward if the vehicle uses that mechanism on the rear axle. Lubricate the abutment clips and guide pins with the hi-temp lubricant supplied, and keep it off the pad friction surface. A pulsing pedal after a fresh install usually points to rotor runout or thickness rather than the new pads themselves.
