Aaron went above and beyond to find a hard to get part for me. Gave him my name and cell # and sure enough he came thru with the correct part! Great communication with this guy. If your having trouble finding the right part be sure to ask for Aron at the east york location. Mark L.

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.
