Product Details

Part number 4312-54036 is part of the DFC GEOSPEC line, which pairs coated brake rotors with ceramic pads and matching hardware for a complete rear brake service package. The rotors use a silver-gray protective coating to help fight corrosion, while the cast iron construction is machined to tight tolerances and finished for even pad contact. The pads are post-cured and scorched to reduce initial break-in time and maintain stable friction across a wide temperature range. This part number 4312-54036 is a practical choice for Ford Explorer, Ford Ranger, and Mercury Mountaineer rear brake maintenance.

Common Problems This Kit Can Address

• Brake noise from worn pads or fatigued hardware.
• Uneven braking caused by rotor wear or corrosion.
• Excessive dust from older friction material.
• Longer stopping distances from reduced pad effectiveness.
• Vibration or harshness during braking.

Installation Notes

Use this kit for rear brake service only on the listed applications. The rotors are processed dry and ready to install without additional preparation. For best results, inspect caliper condition, pad contact points, and related brake components before assembly. Confirm fitment by matching the vehicle year, make, model, and rear position to the listing before installation.

Quality Assurance

DFC states that the rotors are manufactured to OE specifications and inspected for critical dimensions and balance. The rotors include a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
