Product Details
The DFC 4000 HybriDynamic line focuses on a practical brake pad formulation that delivers predictable pedal feel and strong brake response without requiring guesswork on material choice. For the 2004 Pontiac GTO, front brake service with part number 4000-1043-00, this pad set combines hybrid composition with low-dust, low-noise operation to support clean, quiet street driving. The pad shape is matched to the application with identical inner and outer pad dimensions, and the set is supplied as four pads for the front axle.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
