Front Brake Pad for 2002-2005 Ford Explorer & More - Bosch BC833

Quiet, confident stops start with the right Bosch brake pad, and the Bosch QuietCast Disc Brake Pad Set (BC833) drops in as a front-axle replacement. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2003-2011 Ford Ranger and 2003-2009 Mazda B2300; see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list. The QuietCast line pairs a copper-free ceramic friction formula, compliant with 2025 Copper Free legislation, with hardware and shims aimed at reducing noise.

• OE-style rubber-core shims: pre-attached multilayer shims bond rubber to steel for lower noise, added strength and corrosion resistance.
• PTFE & rubber-coated hardware: helps reduce vibration and noise while preventing the pad from binding to the caliper.
• Powder-coated backing plate: resists rust and corrosion for longer pad life.
• Protective transfer layer: designed to extend pad and rotor life; synthetic lubricant is included in all applications to reduce resistance on sliding contact points.

This set services one front axle. If worn front pads are behind your squeal, grinding or reduced braking, replacing them addresses the friction material; inspect the rotors and hardware during service and replace both sides together for even, balanced braking.
