Product Details

DFC GEOSPEC Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads are engineered as a matched brake service solution for front axle replacement. The rotors are machined to tight tolerances, inspected for balance on vented applications, and finished to promote even pad contact. The pad compound is formulated for stable friction performance, while the shim design helps reduce brake noise and harshness. This part number, 4502-20023, is a practical choice for drivers servicing a Jaguar XJR or Jaguar XK8 front brake system with OE-style component matching.

Compatible With: Fits 1998-2001 Jaguar XJR, front; Fits 1997-1998 Jaguar XK8, front; Fits 1999 Jaguar XK8, front to chassis number 037-347. Part number 4502-20023 is also referenced for the same front brake application.

Common Problems This Kit Can Address

• Brake pulsation from worn or uneven rotors
• Reduced stopping performance from aged pads
• Brake noise caused by worn friction material or poor pad fit
• Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
• Longer service time from separate rotor and pad sourcing

Installation Notes

Install on the front axle only for the listed Jaguar applications. The rotors are shipped dry and ready for installation, so no oil cleaning step is required before service. Follow proper brake service procedures, inspect related wear items, and verify fitment by model year and chassis note before installation.

Quality Assurance

DFC GEOSPEC rotors are manufactured to OE-style specifications, then inspected for critical dimensions and balance where applicable. Each rotor includes a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
