Product Details

DFC 4512-54237 is a front brake service kit engineered for OE-style fitment and braking consistency. The rotors are cast to G3000/G11H18 specifications, machined to tight tolerances, and inspected for critical dimensions and balance. The pads are formulated for controlled friction response, while the included hardware is designed to restore proper caliper movement and spring tension during brake service. This kit is a practical choice for a Ford Explorer front brake kit or Lincoln Aviator front brake kit when servicing vehicles equipped with 363mm front discs.

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

Installation Notes

Inspect calipers, slides, and hub surfaces before installation. Clean the hub face, verify rotor seating, and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s torque specifications. The rotor coating is removed naturally by the brake pads during initial use, so no extra preparation is required. For best results, complete a proper pad bed-in procedure after installation.

Quality Assurance

DFC GeoSpec rotors are 100% inspected after machining, including balance checks on vented rotors, and each rotor is verified against OE specifications. The rotors include a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
