Front Brake Kit for Ford and Lincoln

Dynamite Friction DFC GEOSPEC Coated Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads - Ceramic and Hardware, part number 4512-99099, is a front disc brake kit built for select Ford and Lincoln applications. It combines coated rotors, ceramic brake pads, and matching hardware for a complete front brake service on covered vehicles.

• Front disc brake kit with coated rotors, ceramic pads, and hardware
• GEOSPEC rotor coating helps resist rust and leaves a silver-gray finish
• Dry-processed rotors arrive ready to install without oil removal
• Non-directional rotor finish supports even pad bed-in and smoother braking
• 5000 Advanced pads are post-cured, scorched, and fitted with rubber-steel-rubber shims
• Hardware uses PTFE coating, vulcanized rubber, and stainless steel construction

Product Line Details

The DFC GEOSPEC Coated Rotors line is engineered to match OEM-style durability and stability using G3000/G11H18 cast iron specifications and tight machining tolerances. The 5000 Advanced Brake Pads are formulated for consistent friction performance, reduced initial break-in, and improved noise, vibration, and harshness control. This combination is aimed at drivers who want a front brake refresh with rotor protection, pad consistency, and OE-style fitment.
