Product Details

Akebono is known for advanced brake friction development and OE supply experience, and the ProACT Ultra Premium Ceramic Pad line reflects that focus. The ACT857 is engineered for front axle use on specific Chrysler and Dodge minivan platforms, including 2001-2007 Chrysler Town & Country, 2001-2007 Dodge Caravan, 2001-2007 Dodge Grand Caravan, and 2003 Chrysler Voyager configurations listed in the fitment data. Some applications note caliper casting 66239 or the absence of abutment clips, so matching the vehicle’s brake hardware details is important when selecting this pad set. This part cross-references Bosch BC857 for the same application.

Common Brake Issues Addressed

• Squealing or brake noise during stops
• Uneven or inconsistent front brake response
• Excessive brake vibration or harshness
• Worn front disc pads on listed Chrysler and Dodge minivans
• Need for an OE-style ceramic replacement pad

Installation Notes

Verify the vehicle year, make, model, and front brake configuration before ordering. Confirm whether the application requires caliper casting 66239 or is specified without abutment clips, since those details affect fitment on certain Caravan, Grand Caravan, Town & Country, and Voyager models. Inspect rotors, calipers, and pad hardware condition during service, and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s brake service procedure.

Quality Assurance

Akebono Brake Corporation is a long-established supplier of advanced brake friction materials and OE brake technology, with technical and R&D operations in Japan, the United States, and France. The ProACT Ultra Premium Ceramic Pad line is built to reflect that engineering background and application-specific fitment control.
