- JAJohnnyb “Low Life Antics”Jan 20, 20261.0Honestly overpriced to the max. Go to Amazon get the right part the first time with zero hassle and a website that actually works. The website might be the worst part about this company.

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.
