Product Details

DFC’s 5000 Advanced Brake Pads are formulated for modern vehicle braking systems and are built with post-curing and scorching processes to improve initial performance and reduce break-in time. The pads are paired with premium shims to help control brake noise and pedal harshness. The GEOSPEC coated rotors are machined to OE-style tolerances, finished for smoother contact, and inspected for balance and critical dimensions. Part number 4512-45051 is designed as a complete rear brake service solution for drivers replacing worn components on compatible Buick and Chevrolet models.

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

What It Helps Fix

• Brake pulsation from worn or uneven rear rotors
• Squealing or noise caused by aged pads and hardware
