Hi, everybody, Andy here with etrailer. Let's take a quick look at this Timbren Front Wheel BES Brake Upgrade Kit. Now, this kit has been designed to fit your 2021 to 2024 Ram 1500 with the 6.2 liter engine. And on custom fit parts such as this kit, I do recommend going through our vehicle fit guide here at etrailer. Pop in the year, make, and model of your vehicle, answer any other questions that it might have for you, and our fit guide will confirm if this kit will work for you or if we have something comparable that will work for you. Now, upgrading your suspension can improve your ride quality of your truck, it can help reduce the sag, and it can make your truck feel more stable while you're towing or hauling those heavy loads.
But it's not going to reduce the extra workload that's being placed on your factory brakes. So if you ever felt like that your truck takes longer to stop when you're towing a heavy trailer or hauling a heavy load, or maybe your brakes are wearing out faster than you expected them to, or maybe the added weight is making your braking feel less confident, that's where this BES Brake Upgrade Kit comes into play. This kit is designed to give your truck stronger, more consistent braking when it's carrying those heavier loads. Now, it features these low-metallic onyx bite brake pads that give you a strong initial bite and eliminate brake fade that occurs with frequent stopping when towing. So you're gonna notice more confident, consistent braking performance on every road trip.
And these multi-layered rubber shims are gonna help stabilize the brake pads during braking, ultimately reducing vibration, keeping the brake noise to a minimum without sacrificing braking performance. On your screen, I wanted to give you a close up of one of these shims from Timbren, showing you the construction. You see that on the first photo. Then on the second photo, just another look at the construction of the brake pads themselves. So these positive-molded pads, paired with these precision-balanced rotors, are going to promote smooth, even braking and more consistent pedal feel.
Speaking of these rotors, these are OEM-style vented rotors as you can see here. That's gonna help dissipate heat during repeated stops to reduce brake fade when towing. And these are premium G3000 raw iron rotors, and they feature Timbren's OnyxBond matte black coating on the hat, veins, and outer edges. As you know, heat is the enemy of brakes. So this OnyxBond coating has a heat threshold of up to 932 degrees Fahrenheit, which is 67% better than the standard GEOMET coating that's most commonly used on standard OEM parts.
But this coating is also gonna help protect them from rust caused by road spray, moisture, and winter driving. It's gonna help keep your brakes looking cleaner between services without affecting braking performance. By the way, these pads also feature a bed-in coating, indicated by the blue lines on the pads. That's gonna transfer to the rotors to protect it during those first stops, so you're gonna be able to enjoy consistent braking performance sooner after installation. Now, installation's gonna be straightforward, you're gonna get everything that you see here on my table, the pads, the rotors, the hardware, and the lubricant. But if you think you would like some help with the installation, maybe you're not too excited about doing the installation yourself, that's okay, because on this product page, underneath the photos section, we have a link that will take you to our installer locator. Click that link, answer the questions that it has for you, and that locator will find an installer in your area that etrailer has partnered with to do the install for you. So if you've already upgraded the suspension on your truck, looking for that smoother, more controlled ride, then this brake kit is going to compliment that upgrade by addressing, really, the other half of that equation by giving your truck the stopping power and the confidence that you need to better handle those heavier loads, whether you're hauling or towing. And together with your suspension upgrade, they're gonna work together to give you a safer, more capable towing experience and setup. Well, I think that's gonna wrap up our look today. Again, my name's Andy. Thank you for joining me.
