Dynamite Friction 4502-76161 Disc Brake Kit - Front

Front Brake Kit for Toyota Tacoma and 4Runner

The Dynamite Friction DFC GEOSPEC Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads kit is a front disc brake service kit built for select Toyota applications. Part number 4502-76161 combines coated rotors and matched pads for a direct brake service solution on 1995-2004 Toyota 4Runner and 2004 Toyota Tacoma front axle applications.

Key Features

• DFC GEOSPEC coated front brake rotors with a silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
• Dry-processed, dry-shipped rotors ready for installation without cleaning oil residue
• G3000/G11H18 cast iron rotor construction engineered to OE specifications
• Non-directional rotor finish for more even pad bed-in and smoother braking
• 100% inspected rotors with balance correction on vented units when required
• DFC 5000 Advanced brake pads with post-cured friction material
• Scorched pads to reduce initial break-in time and improve first-stop response
• Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved noise, vibration, and harshness control

Product Line Details

DFC GEOSPEC rotors are finished with a protective coating that helps resist rust better than conventional paint or zinc-style coatings. The rotor machining process includes tight tolerances, a non-directional finish, and final inspection to support consistent pedal feel and quieter stops. The 5000 Advanced pad line is formulated for stable friction performance and uses shim construction aimed at reducing brake noise.

Detailed Description

Part number 4502-76161 is a front brake kit that pairs DFC GEOSPEC coated rotors with DFC 5000 Advanced brake pads for service on select Toyota Tacoma and Toyota 4Runner models. This kit is built for front axle brake replacement where OE-style rotor dimensions, stable friction, and corrosion protection matter. It is a practical choice for a Toyota Tacoma front brake kit or a Toyota 4Runner front disc brake kit when replacing worn rotors and pads together.

Compatible With 2004 Toyota Tacoma, front; 1995-2002 Toyota 4Runner, front. Fitment notes include 6 lug wheels and Vehicle Stability Control on the Tacoma, plus 319mm front rotors and Caliper Cast #S13-WM on the 4Runner. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Problems This Kit Can Address

• Brake pulsation from worn or uneven front rotors
• Noise caused by aged pads or inconsistent pad contact
• Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
• Longer stopping distances from worn friction material
• Brake vibration related to rotor balance or finish issues

Installation Notes and Tips

Install on the front axle only and verify the vehicle’s wheel, drum, and caliper configuration before ordering. The rotors are shipped dry and ready to install, which reduces prep time during service. For best results, clean the hub mounting surface, confirm rotor runout, and follow a proper pad bed-in procedure after installation.

Quality Assurance

Each DFC GEOSPEC rotor is machined to OE-style tolerances, inspected for critical dimensions, and covered by a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship. The brake pads are post-cured, scorched, and assembled with premium shims to support consistent performance and NVH control.
