Detailed description

PowerStop AR8179SCR is a front disc brake rotor engineered for vehicles that require a 12.40-inch rotor with a 4.50-inch bolt circle and five lug holes. The vented design, full cast construction, and mill-balanced finish support stable braking performance, while the coated hat and edge help resist rust in exposed areas. This rotor is a practical choice for Ford Taurus, Ford Taurus X, Mercury Sable, Ford Five Hundred, Ford Freestyle, and Mercury Montego applications that call for OE-style replacement parts. The AR8179SCR part number is also useful when cross-checking brake service needs for these platforms.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 5F9Z 1125-BA, 5F9Z 1125-C) for the same application.

Common replacement issues

  • Brake pulsation caused by worn rotor surfaces.
  • Rust buildup on exposed rotor areas.
  • Reduced braking consistency from rotor wear.
  • Noise or vibration linked to uneven rotor condition.
  • Fitment problems from using the wrong OE-style rotor dimensions.

Installation notes and quality

Verify rotor diameter, bolt circle, and vented construction before installation. This rotor is a front application and should be matched to the vehicle’s original brake specifications. The AR8179SCR is designed to mirror OE performance and specifications, including weight and vane count, for confirmed fitment.
