The Story
Rear Brake Kit for Ford F-150
Restore rear braking performance on select Ford F-150 trucks with the DFC Geospec Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads kit, part number 4512-54251. This rear disc brake kit combines coated rotors, advanced friction pads, and matching hardware for a service-focused brake repair on 2021-2026 Ford F-150 applications.
Key Features
- Rear disc brake kit for select Ford F-150 models
- DFC Geospec coated rotors with a silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
- 5000 Advanced brake pads with post-cured friction material
- Scorched pad surface for reduced initial break-in time
- Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved noise, vibration, and harshness control
- Non-directional rotor finish for even pad bed-in and smoother braking
- Hardware kit included for a complete rear brake service
- Part number 4512-54251
Product Details
The DFC 5000 Advanced Brake Pads line is built around application-specific friction formulas developed for modern vehicle braking demands. For the Ford F-150, that means rear brake components matched to the axle requirements of the truck rather than a generic pad compound. The pads are post cured for stable friction behavior and scorched to reduce the need for extended break-in after installation. DFC Geospec rotors are cast to G3000/G11H18 specifications, machined to tight tolerances, and finished with a dry coating that helps resist rust while remaining ready to install. The included hardware is engineered to support proper caliper movement and consistent pad contact.
Compatible With 2021-2022 Ford F-150, rear; 2023-2025 Ford F-150, rear with Heavy Duty Electric Parking Brake; and 2026 Ford F-150, rear with Max Tow Rear Axle and 350mm rear disc. Part number 4512-54251 is a direct service solution for rear brake maintenance on these Ford F-150 configurations.
What This Kit Helps Address
- Rear brake noise from worn hardware or pad shims
- Uneven pad wear caused by fatigued brake hardware
- Reduced stopping response from worn rear pads and rotors
- Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
- Longer brake service time from oil-coated replacement rotors
Installation Notes
Verify rear axle configuration, parking brake type, and rotor size before ordering. This kit is listed for 2021-2022 Ford F-150 rear applications with a 350mm rear disc, 2023-2025 Ford F-150 rear applications with Heavy Duty Electric Parking Brake, and 2026 Ford F-150 rear applications with Max Tow Rear Axle and 350mm rear disc. Clean installation surfaces, inspect caliper slides, and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s brake service procedure during installation. Part number 4512-54251 is intended for rear axle service only.
Quality Assurance
DFC rotors are 100% inspected for critical dimensions and balance, and each rotor includes 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. DFC hardware kits use PTFE coating, vulcanized rubber, and stainless steel for OE-style form, fit, and function.
