Detailed Product Overview

Bendix Premium Ceramic SBC2231 is part of the Bendix Friction brake pad lineup engineered to cover a wide range of North American vehicles. This rear brake pad set is matched to applications where the original equipment pad material is ceramic, making it a practical choice for owners looking for OE-style replacement pads for the rear axle. It is a strong fitment-based search result for rear brake pads for Ford Explorer, rear brake pads for Ford Mustang, and rear brake pads for Lincoln Aviator.

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