Centric 320.42063F Disc Brake Rotor - Front

Centric GCX Front Brake Rotor Overview

The Centric GCX Elemental Protection Disc Brake Rotor, part number 320.42063F, is a front vented rotor built to match OE performance while adding corrosion resistance on non-mating surfaces. It is a fitment-specific replacement for select Nissan Frontier, Nissan Xterra, Nissan Pathfinder, and INFINITI QX4 applications.

Centric’s GCX Full Coating line uses an application-specific coating pattern and rotor metallurgy selected to align with OEM-style brake pad friction and vehicle requirements. For drivers searching for a front brake rotor for 2003-2004 Nissan Frontier or a coated front rotor for 2000-2004 Nissan Xterra, this part number 320.42063F is built for those exact front applications.

Product Details

Centric GCX rotors are engineered to deliver OE-style braking performance with improved surface protection for the life of the rotor. The RS200 coating is applied to non-mating surfaces to help resist rust on the hat and outer areas, while the rotor metallurgy is matched to OEM-style carbon content for the vehicle platform. This makes the Centric GCX 320.42063F a practical choice for front brake service on 1996-1998 Nissan Pathfinder, 1997 INFINITI QX4, and 2000-2004 Nissan Xterra front brake applications.

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

Common Problems This Rotor Can Address

• Front brake rotor rust on exposed surfaces
• Brake pulsation caused by worn or below-spec rotors
• Reduced braking consistency from heat-worn rotor surfaces
• Noise or vibration related to rotor wear
• Fitment issues when replacing an OE-style front vented rotor

Installation Notes

Verify rotor dimensions, bolt pattern, and hub fitment before installation. This rotor uses a 6-bolt pattern, a 124 mm bolt circle, and a 100 mm center hole diameter, so matching the vehicle hub and brake setup is important. Clean the hub face thoroughly before mounting to help prevent runout-related brake noise or pedal pulsation.
