I purchase a full kit last year, around August, but do to some health issues, and since I am forced to work on my truck outdoors, the rain hasn't stopped long enough to get the job done, I hope to install all the brake parts soon.

I’ve been debating if I go for red calipers. Truck only has 17k as a 2015 but I feel like I’m hearing at least one bad when breaking. I tend to drive it like a car sometimes to not sure how long OEM generally lasts.

There’s another thread where people tell about how long their OEM brakes last... most say 75,000 to 150,000 miles before anything needs replacing. That said, everyone who has the powerstop says it’s a noticeable improvement over stock. they look awesome too! I don’t have them yet, but I will

I just did this kit (minus the new calipers) along with ZONE UCAs a few days ago. They are awesome.

I have a spare set as well (for sale) as I was able to source these locally after GotExhaust already sent me a set . . . if anyone’s looking for some.;)

My fronts had 20% pad left at 93k. 50% on the rear. Stock brakes work great but the mod bug got me.

Makes sense I just know I’m her hearing a squealing and not sure what’s causing it I do kind of have a lead foot so not sure if I have worn them down.

I've had mine on since April and they are by far the best brakes I've had on the truck. They grab quick and the brake pedal is nice and solid. Even when my truck was brand new it didn't have a pedal feel like that. Highly recommend the PS Z36s
