Product Details
The DFC Complete Brake Kits line groups the main brake service components together so the rotor, pad, and hardware selection stays matched for the application. This kit is listed for 1986-1987 Ford Ranger front brake service on vehicles built to 9/86 with either 9 inch rear drums or 10 inch rear drums, and for 1986 Ford Aerostar front brake service with either a rear brake drum diameter of 10 inches or 9 inch rear drums.
