Rear Ceramic Brake Pads for Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury

MPA Electrical 1003-0690C is a rear disc brake pad set built for specific Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury applications. It uses a ceramic friction material with integrated molding, pad shims, and abutment clips to support smooth pedal response, low dust, and quiet operation.

Key Features

• Ceramic friction material for consistent braking performance
• Application-specific friction formula for predictable pedal feel
• Low-noise design with pad shims and adhesive-backed shim construction
• Includes mounting hardware, pad shims, and abutment clips
• New, regular-grade disc brake pad set
• Part number 1003-0690C for easy identification

Detailed Product Overview

Quality-Built Black Series brake pads are engineered for controlled stopping power across a wide temperature range, with a focus on even response and reduced brake noise. The ceramic friction compound is selected for rear brake service where smooth engagement and low dust are priorities. This 1003-0690C brake pad set is a direct-fit option for rear brake service on 1996-2002 Ford Crown Victoria, 1996-2002 Lincoln Town Car, and 1996-2002 Mercury Grand Marquis with phenolic piston and ceramic applications, plus 1996-2000 Ford Grand Marquis with police package and 2001 Ford Grand Marquis rear fitment.

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

What It Helps Address

• Brake squeal during everyday driving
• Excess brake dust on rear wheels
• Uneven or inconsistent pedal feel
• Reduced stopping confidence from worn rear pads
• Heat-related fade during repeated braking

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rear caliper configuration before installation, especially phenolic piston applications. Inspect rotors, caliper slides, and abutment contact points before fitting new pads. Use brake lubricant on the appropriate contact surfaces during service, since lubricant is not included. Confirm that the pad shims and abutment clips seat correctly before road testing.
