The pads have an overall thickness of 16.9 mm (0.67 inches) and a height of 77.5 mm (3.05 inches), with a width of 134.6 mm (5.3 inches). The semi-metallic composition balances wear resistance and heat dissipation, suitable for regular driving conditions. The slotted design helps channel away dust and gases generated during braking, reducing fade and maintaining consistent pedal feel. Chamfered edges and included pad shims help reduce noise and vibration, contributing to a quieter braking experience. The iron backing plates are bonded to the friction material for structural integrity and durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatible Vehicles and Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis disc brake pad set is compatible with a range of Lexus and Toyota models, including:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLexus GX460 and GX470\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eToyota 4Runner and FJ Cruiser\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eToyota Hilux, Sequoia, Tacoma, and Tundra\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese pads are designed to meet the braking requirements of these vehicles, providing reliable stopping power for daily driving and moderate load conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Issues Addressed by DuraGo BP976MS Brake Pads\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduced braking performance due to worn or thin pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake noise and vibration caused by uneven pad surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake fade from excessive heat buildup during extended use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDelayed maintenance alerts without pad wear sensors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUneven pad wear leading to premature replacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation of the DuraGo BP976MS disc brake pads requires standard brake service procedures.
