Key Features

• Complete disc brake kit with rotors and pads for front and rear service
• Fits 1998-2003 Jaguar Vanden Plas and 1998-2003 Jaguar XJ8
• DFC 5000 Advanced pads are post-cured for stable friction performance
• Pads are scorched to reduce initial break-in time and improve first-stop response
• Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims help reduce noise, vibration, and harshness
• GeoSpec coated rotors feature a silver-gray finish that resists rust better than conventional paint or zinc coatings
• Rotors are dry processed and ready to install without oil removal
• Non-directional rotor finish supports even pad bed-in and smoother braking

Product Details

Part number 4504-20015 is a brake service kit from Dynamite Friction that pairs DFC GEOSPEC coated rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads. The rotor castings are made to G3000/G11H18 cast iron specifications, machined to tight tolerances, and inspected for critical dimensions and balance. For Jaguar Vanden Plas and Jaguar XJ8 owners, this kit provides a direct service solution for front and rear brake replacement with components engineered to OE-style requirements.

This part number, 4504-20015, is a practical choice when replacing worn brake components on 1998-2003 Jaguar Vanden Plas or 1998-2003 Jaguar XJ8 vehicles. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Brake Issues It Can Address

• Brake pulsation from worn or uneven rotors
• Reduced stopping performance from worn pads
• Brake noise caused by aged friction material
• Rust buildup on rotor surfaces
• Longer service time caused by oil-coated replacement rotors

Installation Notes

Compatible With 1998-2003 Jaguar Vanden Plas, front and rear, and 1998-2003 Jaguar XJ8, front and rear. The rotors are shipped dry and ready to install, which helps reduce prep time during brake service. A proper bed-in procedure should be followed after installation to help the pads and rotors seat evenly.

Quality Assurance

Each rotor is 100% inspected after machining to verify critical attributes and OE-spec compliance. All vented rotors are balance-checked and corrected when needed. DFC includes a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
