Product Details

The Centric Posi-Quiet line focuses on fit, wear consistency, and noise control. This brake pad set uses precision-cut or shaved backing plates with mechanically attached shims to improve caliper fitment and reduce brake squeal. The semi-metallic formulation is asbestos free and is engineered for front brake applications where controlled friction and durability matter. Part number 106.08210 is a direct-fit option for Ram 2500 front brake pads, Ram 3500 front brake pads, and Ramcharger front brake pads within the listed model years.

This part cross-references Wagner Brake MX859 and Bendix Fleet Metlok MKD859FM for the same application.

Common Brake Issues It Can Address

• Brake noise during light or moderate stops
• Pedal vibration caused by pad movement in the caliper
• Uneven pad wear from inconsistent friction density
• Extended break-in time after brake service
• Front brake replacement needs on Dodge Ram 2500, Ram 3500, and Ramcharger models

Installation Notes

Verify rotor condition, caliper hardware, and sensor routing before installation. Clean the caliper bracket and pad contact points, then follow the vehicle-specific break-in procedure after installation. Confirm fitment by matching part number 106.08210 to the listed front applications before service.

Quality Assurance

Centric manufactures the Posi-Quiet line using an OE-style positive molding process and adds scorching to help remove impurities from the friction material before use. The design also includes shims and backing plate details aimed at reducing noise and improving fit consistency.
