The Story
Front Brake Kit for Impala and Impala Limited
Dynamite Friction DFC GEOSPEC Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads, part number 4502-46081, is a front disc brake kit built for specific Chevrolet applications. It combines coated rotors and matched pads in one package for service work on 2012-2013 Chevrolet Impala and 2014-2016 Chevrolet Impala Limited front brake systems.
Key Features
- Complete front disc brake kit with rotors and pads
- DFC GEOSPEC coated rotors with a silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
- Dry-processed, dry-shipped rotors ready for installation
- OE-matched G3000/G11H18 cast iron rotor specification
- Non-directional rotor finish for even pad bed-in and smoother braking
- 100% inspected rotors, including balance checks on vented designs
- DFC 5000 Advanced pads with post-cured friction material
- Scorched pads to reduce initial break-in time
- Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved NVH control
Product Details
Part number 4502-46081 is part of the DFC Complete Brake Kits lineup, which packages the rotor and pad combination needed for a front brake service. The GEOSPEC rotor coating helps resist rust better than conventional paint or zinc finishes, while the dry-ready surface eliminates the need to clean oil from the rotor before installation. The 5000 Advanced pads are formulated for stable friction performance and consistent pedal response, with shims selected to help reduce noise, vibration, and harshness. This kit is a direct fit for 2012-2013 Chevrolet Impala front and 2014-2016 Chevrolet Impala Limited front brake service, including police, taxi, and heavy-duty notes where listed.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
Common Brake Service Issues
- Front brake noise during stops
- Rotor rust and surface corrosion
- Uneven pad bedding after brake service
- Brake vibration from worn or out-of-spec rotors
- Reduced stopping performance from worn pads
Installation Notes
Compatible With 2012-2013 Chevrolet Impala, front, and 2014-2016 Chevrolet Impala Limited, front. The rotors are shipped dry and ready to install, which can reduce prep time during a standard brake job. Follow OE service procedures, inspect calipers and related wear items before assembly, and complete a proper pad bed-in after installation.
Quality Assurance
DFC machines the rotors to tight tolerances, applies a non-directional finish, and inspects critical dimensions to help ensure OE-level fit and function. Vented rotors are balance-checked and corrected when needed. The rotors include a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
