Installation Notes and Tips

Verify front axle fitment against your vehicle’s year, make, model, and brake configuration before installation. These pads are listed for 1986-1993 Ford Taurus front and 1986-1993 Mercury Sable front applications, including 1986-1992 vehicles with a phenolic piston and semi-metallic specification. Inspect rotors, calipers, and abutment points during service, and apply brake lubricant only where specified by the vehicle service procedure, since lubricant is not included.
