Product Details

The DFC GEOSPEC rotor line uses a coated silver-gray finish that resists rust better than conventional paint or zinc-style coatings. These rotors are machined to tight tolerances, finished with a non-directional surface, and inspected for balance and critical dimensions to meet OE specifications. The 5000 Advanced pads are formulated for consistent friction, then post cured and scorched to reduce initial break-in time. Together, they provide a complete rear brake service solution for Lincoln Town Car rear brake maintenance.

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

Common Issues This Kit Can Address

• Rear brake pulsation from worn or uneven rotors
• Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
• Brake noise from aged pads or worn shims
• Reduced stopping performance from worn rear brake components
• Longer pedal travel caused by brake wear at the rear axle
