- MEMichael EubankJan 28, 20265.0I had great customer service from Andrew. I went to pick up a battery that my son ordered online. I only had a picture,texted to me, of the order. He explained i needed the email since I was not on the pickup list. After a couple of text and calls to my son,he was able to verify and installed the battery. I am grateful he went above and beyond to get the battery installed.

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.
