Product Line Details

DFC GEOSPEC rotors are built around corrosion-resistant coated rotor surfaces and OE-matched machining standards. The 5000 Advanced brake pad line is formulated for stable friction performance, reduced initial break-in, and improved noise, vibration, and harshness characteristics through premium shim construction. Together, the line is aimed at consistent rear brake service for daily-driven trucks and SUVs.

Detailed Description

This rear brake kit is engineered for direct replacement service on 1995-2001 Ford Explorer rear, 1998-2002 Ford Ranger rear, 2001-2002 Ford Explorer Sport rear with rear calipers with steel pistons, and 1997-2001 Mercury Mountaineer rear. The rotors are machined to tight tolerances, finished with a non-directional surface, and inspected to meet OE specifications. The pads are post-cured and scorched to reduce the need for extended break-in and to deliver stable friction from the first stops. If you are servicing a Ford Explorer rear brake kit, Ford Ranger rear brake kit, or Mercury Mountaineer rear brake kit, part number 4502-99096 provides the matched components in one package.

What This Kit Helps Address

• Rear brake pulsation from worn or uneven rotors
• Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
• Brake noise related to pad wear or poor shim control
• Extended stopping distance from worn friction material
• Uneven rear brake performance during routine service
