The Story
Rear Brake Kit for Select Chrysler, Dodge, Ram, and Volkswagen
Dynamite Friction DFC GEOSPEC Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads, part number 4502-40147, is a rear disc brake kit built for select minivan and crossover applications. It combines coated rotors and matched brake pads in one package for a straightforward brake service on the rear axle.
Compatible With 2009-2016 Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Grand Caravan, Ram C/V, Volkswagen Routan, and 2009-2013 Dodge Journey rear brake applications, including listed 2012 vehicles with single piston front calipers and production date notes.
Key Features
- Complete rear disc brake kit with rotors and pads
- DFC GeoSpec coated rotors with a silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
- Dry-processed rotors ready to install without oil cleanup
- Non-directional rotor finish for more even pad bed-in and quieter stops
- 5000 Advanced pads with post-cured friction material
- Scorched pad surface to reduce initial break-in time
- Rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved noise and vibration control
- OE-style rotor construction using G3000/G11H18 cast iron specification
Product Line Details
The DFC GEOSPEC rotor line focuses on corrosion protection and OE-style fitment, while the 5000 Advanced pad line is formulated for stable friction performance across a range of vehicle types. Together, they provide a matched rear brake service kit for drivers replacing worn components on Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Grand Caravan, Ram C/V, Dodge Journey, and Volkswagen Routan models.
What This Brake Kit Helps Address
- Rear brake pulsation from worn or uneven rotors
- Brake noise caused by aged pads or rotor surface wear
- Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
- Extended stopping distance from depleted friction material
- Uneven pad contact during brake service
Installation Notes and Tips
Rear fitment varies by vehicle configuration. Confirm the model year, rear position, and any listed notes before ordering, especially for 2012 Chrysler Town & Country, 2012 Dodge Grand Caravan, and 2012 Ram C/V applications with single piston front calipers and the specified production date. The rotors are shipped dry and ready for installation, which helps reduce prep time during service. Part number 4502-40147 should be verified against the vehicle’s brake configuration before installation.
Quality Assurance
Each rotor is machined to tight tolerances, finished with a non-directional surface, and inspected for critical dimensions and balance where applicable. DFC states that every rotor is covered by a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship. Part number 4502-40147 is built to OE-style specifications for durability, reliability, and stable braking performance.
