The pads are post-cured for consistent friction characteristics and scorched to remove uncured bonding agents, which supports stronger initial bite after installation. The GEOSPEC rotors use a coated finish that resists rust better than conventional paint or zinc-style coatings and arrive dry, so there is no oil film to clean before service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis part number 4502-40102 is a front brake kit for 2007-2009 Dodge Sprinter 3500, 2010-2013 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500, 2019-2022 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 1500, 2019-2022 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500, 2019-2022 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500, and 2008-2017 Volkswagen Crafter Van and Crafter applications listed with front axle fitment.
