Key features

• G3000 cast iron rotor construction for OEM-style durability and stability.
• Non-directional rotor finish for more even pad bed-in and smoother braking feel.
• 3000 Ceramic pads with low dust, fade resistance, and stable friction across a wide temperature range.
• Post-cured and scorched pad material to reduce break-in time and improve initial stopping response.
• PTFE-coated, vulcanized rubber, and stainless steel hardware components for service-grade corrosion protection.
• Part number 6312-40077 for easy identification when ordering brake service parts.

Detailed description

Dynamic Friction 6312-40077 is a front disc brake kit that pairs premium rotors, 3000 Ceramic pads, and matching hardware for direct brake service on select Dodge trucks and SUVs. The rotors are machined to tight tolerances, finished for quieter operation, and inspected for balance and OE-level specifications. The pads are formulated for consistent stopping performance, reduced dust, and dependable friction in everyday driving conditions.

This kit is a practical choice for Dodge Dakota and Dodge Durango owners who want a coordinated brake repair with components engineered to work together. The included hardware uses corrosion-resistant materials to help maintain caliper movement and spring tension during service intervals. Part number 6312-40077 also cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What it helps address

• Brake noise caused by worn or fatigued hardware.
• Uneven pad wear from reduced caliper movement.
• Longer stopping distances from worn rotors and pads.
• Excess brake dust from older friction material.
• Vibration or rough braking feel from rotor surface wear.

Installation notes and tips

Fits 2000-2002 Dodge Dakota, front, 9 inch rear drums. Fits 2000-2002 Dodge Dakota, front, rear disc brake rotor designed for 11 inch rear drums. Fits 2000-2002 Dodge Durango, front. Verify rear brake configuration before ordering, since Dakota fitment varies by drum or rear disc setup.

For best results, clean the hub mounting surface, inspect caliper slides, and follow a proper pad bed-in procedure after installation. Confirm rotor and pad contact surfaces are free of contamination before assembly.
