- OKOhan KaragozianMar 1, 20265.0Everyone is friendly and helpful.
- MMMichelle MulreadyDec 17, 20254.0I finally found the connection I've been looking for there for my Jeep. My other option was online ordering, but the delivery date was too close to Christmas. If you need a wrench of some sort, look to your right as soon as you enter the store. I walked all of the way around and up and down every aisle, as I was paying for the part I finally saw the wrenches.
- DRDheeraj ReddyOct 30, 20255.0I came in to get a brake light, and the woman working there was absolutely great. She didn’t just find the right part quickly, she even helped me install it right in the parking lot. Excellent service and super helpful.

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.
