Detailed Description

The DFC 4000 HybriDynamic Brake Pads are engineered as a practical upgrade for front disc brake service on classic muscle and full-size GM vehicles. The hybrid compound is selected to deliver a stable pedal feel and predictable brake response without forcing you to choose between street comfort and stopping performance. Part number 4000-0003-00 is especially relevant for owners searching for front brake pads for 1967-1970 Chevrolet Bel Air, Caprice, and Impala, as well as 1967-1968 Pontiac GTO, Firebird, Grand Prix, LeMans, and Tempest applications.

This brake pad set also serves fitments for 1967-1968 Buick Skylark, 1967-1968 Oldsmobile Cutlass and Cutlass Supreme, and other listed front applications. If you are replacing worn front disc pads on a 1968 Chevrolet Camaro with front disc/rear drum brakes, or servicing a 1967 Chevrolet Camaro or Malibu, 4000-0003-00 provides a direct-fit option for the specified front position.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
