Nathaniel was absolutely amazing! Customer service was not something that I expected out of a parts store. That was until I met Nathaniel. Im not a mechanic by any stretch of the imagination but he walked me through the process of find the right part with precision, expertise and a smile. I felt good when I left the store. I wish I owned a parts store because I would steal him from you. Bravo.

Went to pick up a tool, the price on the shelf for my item and all similar items was $3.79. Get up to checkout and it rings up for $10.99! They said the best they could do was 20% off which brought it to $8.79 which is still more than double the original shelf price. Like that’s INSANE. And HORRRRRRIBLE customer service. They (employee and manager) ranted on about how it wasn’t their fault and there was nothing they could do about it. To say I’m upset and irritated is a total understatement.

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.
