Bendix Brakes has launched what is aptly named the Ultimate 4WD Brake Upgrade Kit with advanced brake pads and rotors, braided lines and a host of ancillary items to make for a smooth change over and all this is presented in a practical heavy duty touring case sought after by every 4WD enthusiast.
The comprehensive kit includes specially compounded high-performance ceramic material brake pads for increased stopping power in extreme conditions plus the latest Bendix Ultimate Rotors designed and developed specifically for Australia’s demanding conditions.
The new rotors are manufactured to the highest level of precision engineering based on OEM specifications and incorporate innovative technology such as high carbon metallurgy for increased braking performance plus special diamond tip slots and a special bi-directional pillar design to quickly and efficiently expel gases, water, dust and grit. Together this provides the driver with absolute control when braking in extreme conditions with instant response and even friction.
The outcome from the high-performance brake kit with its technically advanced additional strength ceramic brake pads and the ultimate slotted rotors is its sensational stopping power especially under load conditions. Measured in a direct comparison with OEM brakes at 100KM/H it revealed an incredible improvement in stopping distance of up to five metres for the vehicle fitted with the Bendix Ultimate Brake Upgrade Kit. Exhaustive testing also revealed a firm brake pedal that won’t over expand under pressure, a reduction in brake dust and braking noise along with thermal stability in high temperatures and resistance to brake-fade.
Easy to fit braided brake hoses with a protective sleeve that won’t expand under pressure are included, each designed and manufactured in compliance with SAE J1401 specifications.
With the technically advanced Bendix Ultimate 4WD Brake Kit not only is there the keenly sought-after heavy-duty touring case for the 4WD enthusiast but the case contains everything for a smooth changeover to the new high performance 4WD Ceramic Brake Pads, Ultimate Rotors and Braided Brake Hoses. There is also Bendix heavy duty brake fluid, brake cleaner and parts degreaser, Ceramasil brake parts lubricant and brake clean rotor wipes. To help you celebrate once the upgrade conversion is installed there is also a Bendix stubbie holder so you can enjoy a cold one.
The new Ultimate 4WD Brake Upgrade Kit will fit the vehicle application without any modifications; it is compliant with international standards and will not impinge on the vehicle warranty.
Ideally suited to fit a range of the latest 4WD vehicles such as Ranger, Hilux, Isuzu, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Toyota, Volkswagen, etc, the Bendix Ultimate 4WD Upgrade Kit is available from leading automotive, 4WD outlets and Bendix stockists at a recommended price of approximately $1,199.00 (incl. GST).
