Product Details

DFC Friction designed this brake service kit for rear axle maintenance on the Dodge Ram 2500 and Dodge Ram 3500. The GEOSPEC rotor coating helps resist rust better than conventional paint or zinc finishes, while the dry-ready surface reduces prep time during installation. The rotors are machined to tight tolerances, balanced where required, and inspected to meet OE specifications. The 5000 Advanced pads are post-cured and scorched to reduce initial break-in time and deliver stable friction from the first stop. Part number 4512-40129 is a practical choice when you want a rear brake kit that addresses rotors, pads, and worn hardware in one order.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Problems This Kit Can Address

• Rear brake noise from worn pads or fatigued hardware
• Uneven rear pad wear caused by corroded or weak hardware
• Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
• Longer stopping distances from worn rear brake components
• Brake pulsation or rough braking feel from rotor wear

Installation Notes and Tips

Compatible With 2000-2002 Dodge Ram 3500, rear; 2001-2002 Dodge Ram 2500, rear. Confirm rear disc brake configuration before ordering. Clean the rotor friction surfaces before installation if needed, and follow proper pad bedding procedures after service. Inspect caliper slides, mounting points, and related rear brake components during replacement to help ensure even pad contact and consistent pedal feel.

Quality Assurance

DFC states that each GEOSPEC rotor is inspected for critical dimensions and balance, with vented rotors electronically mill-balanced when required. The rotors carry a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
