Front Brake Kit for Dodge Caliber
The Dynamite Friction DFC GEOSPEC Coated Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads - Ceramic and Hardware kit is built for front brake service on the 2008-2009 Dodge Caliber. Part number 4512-40088 combines coated rotors, ceramic pads, and matching brake hardware in one service kit for a complete front axle brake refresh.
Key Features
- Fits 2008-2009 Dodge Caliber, front
- DFC 5000 Advanced ceramic brake pads with post-cured friction material
- Scorched pad surface to reduce initial break-in time
- Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved NVH control
- GEOSPEC coated rotors with silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
- Dry-processed, dry-shipped rotors ready for installation
- Non-directional rotor finish for smoother pad bed-in
- Disc brake hardware designed to OE form, fit, and function
Product Details
DFC’s 5000 Advanced Brake Pads are formulated for consistent friction performance and are assembled with premium shims to help reduce brake noise, vibration, and harshness. The pads are post cured and scorched to support stable stopping performance from the first stop. The GEOSPEC rotors use G3000/G11H18 cast iron and are machined to tight tolerances with a non-directional finish for even pad contact and quieter operation. Part number 4512-40088 is a practical front brake kit choice for Dodge Caliber owners looking for a complete rotor-and-pad service package.
The included hardware is engineered with PTFE coating, vulcanized rubber, and stainless steel to address worn or corroded brake hardware during service. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
Common Brake Service Issues
- Front brake noise, squeal, or vibration
- Uneven pad wear from fatigued hardware
- Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
- Longer stopping distances from worn friction material
- Brake pulsation from rotor wear or finish issues
Installation Notes
Compatible With 2008-2009 Dodge Caliber, front axle service. Inspect calipers, slides, and mounting points before installation. Clean the hub face thoroughly, verify rotor runout, and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s bedding procedure after installation. The rotors are shipped dry and ready to install without additional preparation.
Quality Assurance
Each DFC GEOSPEC rotor is 100% inspected for critical dimensions and balance, with vented rotors electronically mill-balanced when required. DFC states that every rotor meets OE specifications and includes a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
