The inclusion of mounting hardware and pad shims ensures a secure fit and helps reduce noise and vibration. Both outer and inner pads share identical dimensions, ensuring balanced braking force on both sides. This set is compatible with Ford Explorer, Explorer Sport, Mountaineer, and Ranger models, as well as their Mercury counterparts.
