Mike R. Was very informative and helpful in getting us what we needed. They didn't sell the part we needed and he still took the time to find something that would work for our vehicle online.

These guys helped me in a pinch. Gave me great advice gave me the right parts and when I could get a part to work Steven helped me out big time to fix it. My car would be dead on the side of the road if it wasn't for Steven and his knowledge. This is why I only shop advanced for over 20 years now.

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.
