Keep your rear brakes seated, quiet, and moving freely with the Dynamic Friction Company Disc Brake Hardware Kit (P/N 340-27005). This DFC disc brake hardware kit installs at the rear axle as a direct-fit replacement for a wide range of classic and later Volvos, including the 1975-1984 Volvo 242, 1975-1989 Volvo 244 and 245, 1985-1992 Volvo 740, 1983-1990 Volvo 760, 1993-1997 Volvo 850, and 1998-2004 Volvo C70 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of covered models and years.
Refreshing the small hardware alongside a pad job helps the caliper and pads locate correctly and slide as designed, reducing the noise and uneven wear that tired clips and fasteners can cause.
Replacing worn hardware whenever you change rear pads is good practice for consistent, rattle-free braking.
