- SDStacy DeVaughanNov 28, 20255.0This store has the best customer service. From the time I walked in they helped me get exactly what I needed. The manager Ty goes over and beyond. I watched him multi task with customer and his employees making sure everything was right! He was very knowledgeable and assisting me with things I didn’t know I needed. Thanks again!

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.
