Whether semi-met or ceramic formulations, Mighty System XL® brakes with NET (Noise Elimination Technology ) have superior noise control vs. O.E. and other aftermarket brands on both import and domestic applications.
SAFE STOPS - Silence may be golden, but customer safety is paramount! Mighty System XL® with NET not only meets the government's most stringent safety standards (FMVSS135), but also stops better, with better fade resistance and less rotor wear than O.E. and competitive brands.
SAFE FOR WHEELS - Excessive dust from brake pad and rotor wear is both unsightly and damaging to expensive alloy wheels. Compared to O.E. and other brands, Mighty System XL® brakes featuring NET dramatically reduce dusting — up to 54% less dust!

 Installation Tips - Suspend the caliper from the suspension using a Caliper Hanger to prevent damage to the brake hose
- Apply Brake Lube to caliper pins, clips, the edges of the brake pad mounting tabs, and the back side of the brake pads to ensure noise free braking. DO NOT apply lube to the friction side of the brake pads
- Use a Caliper Piston Compressor to retract the caliper piston(s) and make room for the new, thicker brake pads
- Open the master cylinder reservoir during piston compression to prevent pressure buildup. Keep an eye on the Brake Fluid level to ensure it does not overflow
- After the job is complete, pump the brake pedal several times to push the caliper piston back up against the pads to ensure proper brake function
