Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm front axle fitment and WABCO caliper application before ordering. Inspect rotors, caliper slides, and hardware condition during brake service, and clean all mating surfaces before installation. Z47-1136 includes stainless-steel hardware and pad shims, and the scorched friction surface helps shorten the initial bedding period.

Quality Assurance

PowerStop designs the Z47 MD and Fleet line for demanding commercial use, with a mechanically attached friction layer for added shear resistance and a carbon-fiber semi-metallic compound for durability in fleet service. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
