Front Brake Kit for Ford and Lincoln

The Dynamite Friction DFC GEOSPEC Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads kit is a front disc brake service kit built for OE-style replacement on select Ford and Lincoln vehicles. Part number 4502-99076 combines coated rotors and advanced friction pads for a complete front brake refresh.

Compatible With 2011-2019 Ford Explorer, 2011-2019 Ford Flex, 2011-2019 Ford Taurus, 2011-2012 Lincoln MKS, and 2011-2012 Lincoln MKT front brake applications. This kit is also a strong search match for Ford Explorer front brake kit, Ford Taurus front rotor and pad kit, and Lincoln MKT front brake replacement searches.

Key Features

• Part number 4502-99076 front disc brake kit
• DFC GEOSPEC coated rotors with a silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
• Rotors ship dry and are ready to install without oil removal
• Non-directional rotor finish supports even pad bed-in and smoother braking
• G3000/G11H18 cast iron rotor construction for OE-style durability and stability
• DFC 5000 Advanced Brake Pads are post-cured and scorched for stable friction performance
• Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims help reduce noise, vibration, and harshness

Product Details

DFC GEOSPEC rotors are machined to tight tolerances, finished for quieter stops, and inspected for balance and critical dimensions before release. The coating is designed to resist rust better than conventional paint or zinc finishes, while the dry-pack process saves prep time during installation. The 5000 Advanced Brake Pads are formulated for consistent friction across a range of driving conditions and are assembled with NVH-focused shims for improved pedal feel and reduced brake noise.

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

Common Brake Issues This Kit Can Address

• Front brake pulsation from worn or uneven rotors
• Squealing or noisy braking from aged pads
• Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
• Reduced stopping performance from worn friction material
• Brake vibration caused by rotor thickness variation
