- DADave AmicoAug 23, 20255.0The youngest member of this team "CAM" listens really well and finds what you need at the lowest price. You can tell that he lives and breathes automotive thoughts on a daily basis. The whole staff at this location is very knowledgeable and helpful in getting what you need. Yo for real... I'm not a bot or AI.
- JJJamesAug 18, 20255.0Friendly staff quick service!
- JVJeffery ValadeAug 4, 20251.0I don’t usually write reviews but my part was up charged like crazy, told em I planned to return it if I didn’t need it, which I was urged into buying it more just for them to tell me that it couldn’t be returned. Would’ve been great to hear that before I payed 500% what it’s worth. If you wanted to find that out you’d have to click thru the page and read the small print at the very bottom, if you don’t you are guaranteed to never hear it from the employees👍

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.
