Review on πŸš— Power Stop K4101 Z23 Carbon Fiber Brake Pads & Drilled/Slotted Brake Rotors Kit for Front and Rear by Jeff Henkhaus

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good fit for a 2010 Rav4 V6

I've seen a couple of reviews saying the rotor is too thick and the calipers don't fit with new pads. The hardest part of this job for me was fitting the calipers to the new rotor with new pads, but they fit. Firstly, make sure the piston on the caliper is fully seated in the body, I just used the old c-clamp pads to push the piston back, and secondly, make sure the pads are properly spaced and as far apart as possible are removed. Third, I found it easier to install the caliper by starting at the top where the pads slope, and it was easy to attach the rest of the caliper. I did this job yesterday on my wife's 2010 Rav4 V6 on all 4 wheels and it took about 5 hours. Overall very good brakes. I highly recommend buying some penetrating fluid, brake parts cleaner and some brake parts lube as there isn't enough in the box.

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
