Detailed Description

Brakes work as a system, and worn hardware can affect how the pads slide and seat in the bracket. Carlson 13240 is a front disc brake hardware kit for service on the Ford Probe, Mazda 626, and Mazda MX-6, covering the model years listed below. Using fresh hardware during brake service helps restore proper pad positioning and consistent contact at the front axle. This part number 13240 is a direct-fit service solution for front brake maintenance on these vehicles.

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

What It Helps Address

• Brake pad drag caused by worn or corroded hardware
• Uneven pad movement in the front caliper bracket
• Noise from loose or fatigued brake hardware
• Poor pad seating after front brake service
• Inconsistent braking feel related to aged abutment clips

Installation Notes and Tips

Install Carlson 13240 during front brake service whenever the existing hardware shows wear, rust, or deformation. Clean the caliper bracket contact points before assembly and verify that the pads move freely after installation. Confirm vehicle fitment by year, make, model, and front position before ordering.
