Product Details

The DFC 4000 HybriDynamic line focuses on a straightforward brake pad material choice that delivers stable stopping behavior without adding unnecessary complexity. Part number 4000-0636-00 uses a hybrid friction compound to help maintain consistent brake feel while keeping dust and noise under control. For rear brake service on 1994-2003 Mazda Miata, 1995-1997 Mazda Protege, 1997-2003 Ford Escort, and 1997-1999 Mercury Tracer, this pad set provides the dimensions and fitment needed for the listed rear disc brake applications.

This part number, 4000-0636-00, is a direct rear disc brake pad set for the specified vehicles and positions. It cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Brake Issues It Can Address

• Worn rear brake pads that reduce stopping performance
• Brake noise from aged or uneven pad material
• Excess brake dust from older pad compounds
• Inconsistent pedal feel during normal street driving
• Rear brake service needs on disc-brake-equipped compact cars

Installation Notes

Confirm rear disc brake fitment before ordering, since this pad set is not for drum brake applications. Mounting hardware is not included, and pad wear sensor hardware is not included; however, the pads are prepared for a mechanical wear sensor where equipped. Always inspect rotors, calipers, and guide hardware during brake service, and verify pad dimensions against the original parts before installation. Part number 4000-0636-00 is listed for rear use only.
