I am looking at the 4109-36 kit that includes drilled and slotted rotors, pads and painted calipers for an upgrade to my stock and old brakes that slightly pull to the right. Anyone have experience with this brand?

I got these a couple years back. No new calipers, but I would imagine similar. I cannot attest to improved braking or anything of the sort, was never scientific enough with the previous pads/rotors. They do leave next to no dust, as to be expected. I’ve put about 35000 miles on them since I installed them 5/2020, and they’re still going strong. Some towing, but not as much as anticipated when I bought them to “upgrade.”

I also have the Z36 kit installed, it's been about 10k miles. They work well when I'm towing the camper.

We have a "10 Armada with 130k which are from the factory with undersized brakes right out of the gate. I put those on it last summer & it was a pretty significant upgrade. Definitely slows that beast down like it should have had from the factory. Good to go in my opinion
