Dynamite Friction 4502-54043 Disc Brake Kit - Front
Front Brake Kit for Ford Escort, Mercury Tracer, Mazda Protege and MX-3
The Dynamite Friction DFC GEOSPEC Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads kit combines coated front rotors and matched brake pads for service on select Ford, Mercury, and Mazda applications. Part number 4502-54043 is built for front axle replacement on vehicles such as the Ford Escort, Mercury Tracer, Mazda Protege, and Mazda MX-3.
Key Features
- Complete front disc brake kit with rotors and pads
- DFC GEOSPEC coated rotors with a silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
- Dry-to-install rotor coating reduces prep time during brake service
- Non-directional rotor finish supports even pad bed-in and quieter stops
- 5000 Advanced Brake Pads are post-cured and scorched for stable friction performance
- Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims help reduce noise, vibration, and harshness
- OE-style G3000/G11H18 cast iron rotor specification
- 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship on rotors
Product Details
DFC GEOSPEC Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads are engineered as a matched service kit for front brake replacement. The rotors are machined to tight tolerances, finished with a non-directional surface, and inspected for balance and critical dimensions to support consistent braking performance. The pads are formulated for stable friction and reduced break-in time, making this kit a practical choice for drivers servicing a 1997-2003 Ford Escort front brake kit, a 1993-1999 Mercury Tracer front brake kit, a 1990-1998 Mazda Protege front brake kit, a 1991-1996 Ford Escort front brake kit with front caliper casting number 22-14, a 1991-1996 Mercury Tracer front brake kit with front caliper casting number 22-14, or a 1992-1995 Mazda MX-3 front brake kit. Part number 4502-54043 is also a useful reference when searching for a front disc brake kit for these applications.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
What This Brake Kit Helps Address
- Brake pulsation from worn or uneven front rotors
- Reduced stopping performance from aged pads
- Brake noise caused by worn friction material or poor pad fit
- Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
- Longer service time from rotors that require extra cleaning before installation
Installation Notes and Tips
Compatible With front axle service only. Verify year, make, model, and any caliper casting note before ordering, especially on Mazda Protege and 1991-1996 Ford Escort or Mercury Tracer applications that specify front caliper casting number 22-14. The rotors are shipped dry and ready to install, so no oil removal step is required before brake service. Follow standard brake bedding procedures after installation to help the pads and rotors seat evenly.
Quality Assurance
DFC manufactures the rotors to OE-style specifications and inspects each rotor for critical dimensions and balance. The rotor coating is designed to resist corrosion better than conventional paint or zinc finishes, and every rotor includes a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
