Dynamic Friction 4514-47118 Disc Brake Pad and Rotor / Drum Brake Shoe and Drum Kit - Front and Rear

Brake kit for classic GM trucks

This Dynamic Friction brake service kit combines friction components, coated rotors, and brake hardware for a complete brake refresh. It is built for older Chevrolet and GMC trucks and Suburban models with front and rear brake service needs.

Key features

• DFC 5000 Advanced brake pads with post-cured friction material for stable braking performance.
• Scorched pad surfaces help reduce break-in time and improve initial stopping response.
• Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims help control noise, vibration, and harshness.
• GeoSpec coated rotors use a silver-gray protective finish that resists rust better than conventional paint or zinc coatings.
• Rotors are dry processed, dry shipped, and ready to install without extra preparation.
• Hardware kits use PTFE coating, vulcanized rubber, and stainless steel for OE-style fit and function.

Detailed description

Part number 4514-47118 is a Dynamic Friction brake kit built around DFC GeoSpec rotors and 5000 Advanced brake pads. The rotor design follows OEM-style durability and stability targets, while the non-directional finish supports more even pad bed-in and quieter stops. The pad formulation is developed with OEM friction supplier input and is assembled to deliver consistent friction characteristics across the axle. This part number 4514-47118 is a direct fit for applications such as Fits 1983-1992 Chevrolet G30, Front and Rear, Fits 1983-1992 GMC G3500, Front and Rear, and Fits 1981-1989 Chevrolet P20, Front and Rear.

Brand Line: DFC GeoSpec Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads includes DFC Drums, Shoes, and Hardware. This product line combines coated rotors, advanced pads, and matching hardware for a coordinated brake service solution.

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

What it is used for

• Brake noise caused by worn or fatigued hardware.
• Uneven pad wear from reduced spring tension or caliper movement.
• Rust buildup on rotor surfaces.
• Longer brake service time caused by oil-coated rotors.
• Brake fade or inconsistent pedal feel from worn friction components.

Installation notes and tips

Verify axle configuration, drum size, and brake code notes before ordering, especially on Chevrolet and GMC C20, C20 Suburban, R20, R20 Suburban, R2500, and R2500 Suburban applications. The rotors are shipped dry and ready for installation, so no cleaning of protective oil is required. Follow standard brake service procedures and bed-in recommendations after installation.

Quality assurance

DFC states that the rotors are machined to tight tolerances, inspected for critical dimensions, and checked for balance on vented designs. The rotors carry a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
