Product Details

The DFC 4000 HybriDynamic Brake Pads line focuses on predictable braking performance and straightforward material selection for drivers who want a practical replacement pad. Part number 4000-2230-00 uses a hybrid friction composition to support steady pedal feel and responsive stopping, while keeping dust and noise levels controlled for daily commuting and family vehicle use.

Common Brake Issues Addressed

  • Worn front brake pads causing reduced stopping performance
  • Brake noise during light or moderate pedal application
  • Excess brake dust on wheels from older pad material

  • Service replacement for front disc brake maintenance

Installation Notes

  • Confirm front axle fitment, brake package, and rotor size before installation.
  • Inspect rotors, calipers, and slide hardware during pad replacement.
  • Because mounting hardware is not included, reuse or replace hardware as needed based on vehicle condition.
  • Follow the vehicle manufacturer’s bedding-in procedure after installation.
