Performance Kit 5000; With Black Drilled & Slotted Rotors; With Semi-Metallic Pads
The most effective means to accomplish a proper brake job is to replace the rotors, friction and hardware. DFC has simplified your shopping experience by creating brake kits designed to fit your needs without having to search out all the necessary components. If you are looking to increase the braking performance of your vehicle, DFC's Performance Kit 5000 is the perfect kit for you.
Features & Benefits:
Drilled & slotted rotors grab more bite to the brake pads giving you shorter stopping distances, especially in wet weather
Drill holes reduce the heat that builds on the rotor. Cross-drilled holes are also chamfered, which reduces the potential for cracking
Slots on the rotor remove brake and road debris and prevent pad glazing
Rotors are Zinc Plated Black for rust protection on the rotor hub, vents, and edge
Rotors are engineered with premium G3000/G11H18 iron castings for strength, stability, and durability
Original Equipment (OE) rotor vane configuration to ensure proper and maximum heat dissipation
Rotors are 100% precision mill-balanced for smoother stopping and zero vibration at any speed
Non-directional rotor finish promotes faster break-in and smoother stops
Metallic pad formula provides outstanding stopping power and long pad life
Pads are designed to deliver a consistent pedal feel and superb brake response
Pad are scorched to minimize initial break-in time
Pads are chamfered to reduce noise when braking
Slotted pads dissipate heat and prevent brake fade
Rubber-Steel-Rubber shim reduces noise, vibration and harshness
Includes application specific hardware to reduce noise/vibration and prevent premature wear
Installation Tips
Suspend the caliper from the suspension using a Caliper Hanger to prevent damage to the brake hose
Before installing the rotor, clean the hub face with a Wire Brush to remove rust buildup and apply Copper Anti Seize to prevent future buildup. Rust or debris on the hub can cause rotor runout and lead to wheel vibration
Apply brake lube to caliper pins, clips, the edges of the brake pad mounting tabs, and the back side of the brake pads to ensure noise free braking. DO NOT apply lube to the friction side of the brake pads
Use a Caliper Piston Compressor to retract the caliper piston(s) and make room for the new, thicker brake pads
Open the master cylinder reservoir during piston compression to prevent pressure buildup. Keep an eye on the Brake Fluid level to ensure it does not overflow
After the job is complete, pump the brake pedal several times to push the caliper piston back up against the pads to ensure proper brake function
