Keep your front brakes seating, sliding, and quieting the way they should with the Dynamic Friction Company Disc Brake Hardware Kit 340-27010 (also written 34027010). This front-position kit refreshes the clips, springs, and related hardware that locate the pads and let them move freely in the caliper — the small components that corrode, take a set, or get discarded during a pad change. It fits a range of classic European applications, including the 1966-1968 Mercedes-Benz 250S, 1968-1971 Mercedes-Benz 280SL, 1968-1974 Jaguar XKE, 1976-1979 Lotus Elite, 1962-1973 Volvo 1800, and 1975-1987 Volvo 244; see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of covered vehicles and years.
Fitting fresh hardware alongside new pads is good practice: worn or rusted clips and springs can cause noise, uneven pad movement, and drag. Installing this disc brake hardware kit gives the new pads clean, properly tensioned contact points.
What position does this hardware kit fit?
It is cataloged for the FRONT brakes on the listed applications. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the fit for your specific year, make, and model.
What does a disc brake hardware kit include and do?
It supplies the clips, springs, and related hardware that locate the brake pads and let them slide freely in the caliper, helping keep pad movement smooth and controlled.
Should I replace the hardware when I change my brake pads?
It's good practice. Clips and springs can corrode or lose tension over time, so fitting fresh hardware with new pads helps ensure clean contact points and proper pad movement.
Can worn brake hardware cause noise or drag?
Yes. Rusted or fatigued clips and springs can allow uneven pad movement, which may lead to noise or drag. If the hardware is the cause, replacing it addresses those issues.
Does this kit resist heat and corrosion?
Yes. It is built for corrosion resistance, chemical resistance, and high heat resistance, so it holds up to road salt, moisture, service chemicals, and front-brake operating temperatures.
