- RVRichard ValerioDec 10, 20255.0Joshua Davis saved the day. Not been able to figure out how to get these trailer lights to connect with my truck for years. Didn't know if it was a fuse or faulty wiring, but Joshua took the time to figure it and take care of it for me. Definitely a full time customer from now on. Highly recommend on asking for josh on your next visit. Happy Hollidays everyone.

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.
