- JNJosh NelkeDec 28, 20255.0I had an online order, but when I got to the store, there was a sign saying closed due to short staff. Thankfully, Joseph was there managing it all and was able to deliver my online order. He also helped with some other questions I had. This is the kind of customer service that keeps me coming back.

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.
