DuraGo BP898C Disc Brake Pad Set - Rear

Overview of DuraGo BP898C Disc Brake Pad Set

The DuraGo BP898C disc brake pad set is engineered for reliable braking performance on Chrysler, Dodge, and Ram vehicles. Designed specifically for models like the Ram 1500, Ram 1500 Van, Durango, Aspen, and 1500 Classic, this set offers consistent stopping power with ceramic friction material and mechanical pad wear sensors.

• Ceramic friction material for quieter braking and reduced dust
• Slotted design to improve heat dissipation and reduce brake fade
• Mechanical pad wear sensor included for timely maintenance alerts
• Chamfered edges to minimize noise and vibration
• Pad shims included for proper fit and noise reduction
• Iron backing plates bonded securely to friction material

Detailed Features and Specifications

The DuraGo BP898C brake pads feature a ceramic friction material composition that balances performance and durability, suitable for regular grade braking needs. Both inner and outer pads have a friction material thickness of 10.2 mm, with an overall pad thickness of 15.5 mm, ensuring long service life. The pads include chamfered edges and a slotted design to help reduce noise and improve heat management during braking. Mechanical pad wear sensors are integrated to alert drivers when replacement is necessary, enhancing safety and maintenance scheduling. The iron backing plates are bonded to the friction material for structural integrity, while included pad shims help reduce vibration and noise during operation.

Compatible Vehicles and Applications

This disc brake pad set is compatible with a range of Chrysler, Dodge, and Ram vehicles, including:

• Chrysler Aspen
• Dodge Durango
• Ram 1500 (including Classic and Van models)
• Dodge 1500

These pads are designed to meet the braking requirements of these specific models, providing reliable stopping power and consistent performance under normal driving conditions.

Common Issues Addressed by DuraGo BP898C Brake Pads

• Brake noise and vibration caused by uneven pad wear or poor fit
• Reduced braking efficiency due to worn or overheated pads
• Brake dust accumulation on wheels
• Delayed pad replacement alerts without wear sensors
• Brake fade during extended or heavy braking

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the DuraGo BP898C brake pads, ensure the mechanical wear sensors are properly connected to maintain accurate wear monitoring. Although mounting hardware is not included, the included pad shims should be installed to reduce noise and vibration. Verify that the chamfered edges align correctly with the rotor surface to prevent uneven wear. It is recommended to inspect rotors for wear or damage and replace or resurface as needed to optimize braking performance.
