Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the vehicle year, make, model, and front brake configuration before ordering. Several applications require attention to caliper bracket casting numbers, parking brake shoe design, wheel lug count, or exclusions such as Police Package, Brembo upgrades, Heavy Duty, and Limited trims. Part number 8512-48065 should be matched to the exact front brake setup listed in the fitment table.
