Dynamite Friction 4512-52026 Disc Brake Kit - Rear

Rear Brake Kit for GM W-Body Applications

The DFC GEOSPEC Coated Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads - Ceramic and Hardware kit is a rear disc brake service kit built for select Buick, Chevrolet, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac vehicles. Part number 4512-52026 combines coated rotors, ceramic pads, and matching hardware for a complete rear brake refresh.

Key Features

• Rear disc brake kit with GEOSPEC coated rotors, 5000 Advanced ceramic pads, and hardware
• Dry-to-install coated rotors with a silver-gray finish that resists rust better than conventional paint or zinc coatings
• G3000/G11H18 cast iron rotor construction for OE-style durability and stability
• Non-directional rotor finish for more even pad bed-in and quieter stops
• Post-cured brake pads with scorched friction surfaces for stable performance and reduced break-in time
• Rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved noise, vibration, and harshness control
• Hardware kit uses PTFE coating, vulcanized rubber, and stainless steel

Product Details

DFC designed this brake service kit for rear brake replacement on 1997-2005 GM applications, including the Buick Century, Buick Regal, Chevrolet Impala, Chevrolet Monte Carlo, Pontiac Grand Am, Pontiac Grand Prix, Oldsmobile Alero, and Oldsmobile Intrigue. The coated rotors arrive ready to install without oil removal or extra prep, which helps streamline a rear brake job on vehicles such as the 2000-2004 Chevrolet Impala rear brake service or 1997-2003 Pontiac Grand Prix rear brake replacement. Part number 4512-52026 is built to OE-style specifications for fit, finish, and braking consistency.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Rear brake noise from worn pads or fatigued hardware
• Uneven pad wear caused by corroded or weakened hardware
• Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
• Longer stopping distances from worn rear brake components
• Brake vibration or harshness during everyday driving

Installation Notes

Inspect calipers, slides, and mounting points before installation. Replace worn or corroded components as needed, and follow the vehicle service manual for torque specs and bedding procedures. The rotors are shipped dry and ready to install, and the coating is removed naturally by the brake pads during normal use.

Quality Assurance

Each rotor is machined to tight tolerances, checked for balance on vented designs, and inspected against OE specifications. DFC includes a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship on the rotors.
