Had a battery that wouldn't take a charge. Bought it some time in 2023. under warranty they replaced it for free. And even tested my new one just to make sure I was not going to have any problems with it. Hoot and Tim always treat me like family.

Been to this store many times, but today a very great interaction with James really made a difference. In a time when everything is pricy and you want to make sure you get the right part the first time help and expertise helps. James S was willing and able to help me with find the right lift supports for my topper. He even advised on how to get the old hardware off the old unit to fit my unit so I didn’t have to spend more money on more parts. Hats off to James S. this gentleman deserves Recognition at store 06771

Great help the workers are nice. Fully recommend going to this one off Albert Pike worth the drive over going to the advance auto on Central. Those workers are pretty mean and unhelpful. Tim helped me greatly😊

HOW DO BRAKES WORK?
Expand FAQ item
Brakes work by using friction to turn kinetic energy into heat. There are two designs: drum brakes (older), and disc brakes (newer). Both use hydraulic pressure to move a piston outward. In disc brakes, the piston is located inside a caliper that houses brake pads and fits over the rotor. The friction lining on the pads makes contact with the rotor to slow the vehicle. In drum brakes, the piston moves two curved shoes lined with friction material against the inside of the brake drum.
