- JKJack KingJan 3, 20265.0I had some dobuts about my new Diehard battery's state of health, when the oil change place said battery was in poor condition. But it's only one week old? So I stopped at the Babcock rd store. I don't know the gentleman's names, but they were super helpful. Checked my battery and assured me all is well. Thank you guy's.
- ADandrew demarcoDec 28, 20255.0They couldn't have been nicer. My order was ready when they said it would be ready. I entered the store. Picked up the items. They were kind enough to install the windshield wiper blades. I got them at a discount as I did some windshield wiper fluid. Win win win!

The type of battery also has an affect on the price whether it be a lead/acid, calcium, lithium-ion, deep-cycle.
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.
