- EHEdward HenehanJan 6, 20265.0Great people to deal with. Cant beat Ben. Honest man.
- KCkevin carterNov 9, 20255.0This store has single handily saved the world from cross containment. Never mind if ATF and 5W-20 join hands in the big holding tank, they will not mix containers on this stores watch. Captain Planet is on duty at all times behind that desk, ready to uncross containment at anytime necessary. Keep on keeping on you containment warriors!!!!

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.
