- TBTommy BursiFeb 24, 20261.0Go somewhere else. I’ve drive here twice in the last two weeks and they were closed and locked up during posted ops business hours. Even when they’re open they don’t have what you need. One star review is being generous

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.
