Dynamic Friction 4502-63201 Disc Brake Kit - Front

Front Brake Kit for Mercedes-Benz ML-Class

The Dynamic Friction DFC GEOSPEC Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads kit is a front disc brake service kit built for select Mercedes-Benz ML-Class applications. Part number 4502-63201 combines coated rotors and advanced friction pads in one package for a direct brake service on the front axle.

• Front disc brake kit with rotors and pads
• DFC GEOSPEC coated rotors with silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
• Dry-processed rotors arrive ready to install
• Non-directional rotor finish for even pad bed-in and smoother stops
• G3000/G11H18 cast iron rotor specification for OEM-style durability
• DFC 5000 Advanced pads with post-cured friction material
• Scorched pad surface to reduce initial break-in time
• Rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved noise and vibration control

Product Line Details

DFC GEOSPEC rotors are coated to resist rust better than conventional painted or zinc-coated rotors, and they are machined to tight tolerances with balance inspection on vented designs. The 5000 Advanced Brake Pads are formulated for stable friction performance and assembled with premium shims to support quieter operation. Together, this DFC brake kit is built for front axle service where rotor finish, pad consistency, and OE-style fitment matter.

Vehicle Fitment

• Fits 2002-2005 Mercedes-Benz ML500, front
• Fits 2000-2003 Mercedes-Benz ML55 AMG, front
• Fits 2000-2001 Mercedes-Benz ML430, front

Common Brake Service Issues

• Front brake pulsation from worn or uneven rotors
• Brake noise caused by aged pads or inconsistent pad material
• Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
• Longer stopping distances from worn friction components
• Uneven pad bed-in after rotor replacement

Installation Notes

Use this kit for front axle brake service on the listed Mercedes-Benz ML500, ML55 AMG, and ML430 applications. The rotors are shipped dry and do not require oil removal before installation. Follow standard brake service procedures, inspect related wear items, and verify rotor and pad orientation before final assembly. Part number 4502-63201 is intended for front brake replacement only.

Quality Assurance

Each DFC GEOSPEC rotor is inspected for critical dimensions and finished to OE specifications, with vented rotors balance-checked during production. DFC 5000 Advanced pads are post-cured and scorched for stable friction behavior. Rotors include a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
