Frequently Asked Questions About Peterbilt 367 Brake Parts & Acc.
What model years of Peterbilt 367 are these brake parts compatible with?
Our Peterbilt 367 brake parts are designed to fit model years 2007 through current production. However, compatibility can vary by specific part due to minor design changes over the years. Always check the product description for exact year ranges, or contact our team with your VIN number for verification. Note that pre-2007 models may require different part numbers due to changes in brake system specifications.
Are these aftermarket brake parts DOT approved and safe for commercial use?
Yes, all brake components we carry for the Peterbilt 367 meet or exceed DOT standards and FMVSS regulations for commercial vehicles. Our brake pads, rotors, and drums are manufactured to OEM specifications and undergo rigorous testing for performance and durability. Each product page indicates whether the part is DOT certified, and we provide documentation upon request for fleet compliance records.
What tools and expertise are needed to install these brake components?
Installing Peterbilt 367 brake parts typically requires standard heavy-duty truck tools including a 3/4" or 1" impact wrench, brake spring tools, and proper jack stands rated for commercial vehicles. Most brake pad replacements can be completed in 2-3 hours per axle by experienced mechanics. Air brake systems require additional considerations including proper bleeding procedures and adjustment. We recommend professional installation if you're not familiar with commercial air brake systems, as improper installation can lead to brake failure.
How do I know when to replace brake pads versus rotors or drums?
Brake pads on a Peterbilt 367 typically need replacement when they reach 1/4 inch thickness or show uneven wear patterns. Rotors should be replaced when they reach minimum thickness specifications (usually stamped on the rotor) or show heat cracks, scoring deeper than 0.060 inches, or blue discoloration from overheating. Drums need replacement when they exceed maximum diameter specifications or show heat checking. As a general rule, rotors last through 2-3 sets of pads, while drums can last 3-4 sets when properly maintained.
What's the difference between standard and severe-duty brake options for my 367?
Standard brake components are suitable for typical highway and local delivery applications. Severe-duty options feature enhanced friction materials, thicker rotors or drums, and improved heat dissipation for applications involving frequent stops, mountain driving, or heavy loads exceeding 70,000 lbs GVW. Severe-duty pads typically last 20-30% longer but cost approximately 40% more. Consider severe-duty options if you operate in mountainous terrain, make more than 50 stops per day, or frequently haul at maximum capacity.
