Dynamic Friction Company Disc Brake Hardware Kit P/N:340-02016
Keep every rear brake pad seated, sliding, and quiet with the Dynamic Friction Company Disc Brake Hardware Kit (MPN 340-31006, also written 34031006). This rear disc brake hardware kit is a direct-fit replacement for a long run of classic BMWs, including the 1991 318I and 318IS, the 1987-1991 325I and 325IS, the 1986-1988 325, the 1982-1988 528E, the 1985-1988 535I, and the 1985-1989 635CSI — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of 20 applications.
Fresh hardware restores the correct pad-to-caliper contact that worn, corroded clips and springs can no longer provide, helping curb the rattle, uneven pad wear, and drag that tired hardware often causes.
Replacing the hardware whenever you install new rear pads is good practice for consistent, balanced braking.
What does this kit include and do?
It's a rear disc brake hardware kit that supplies the clips, springs, and related hardware that locate the pads and keep them properly seated in the caliper for smooth, rattle-free operation.
Which vehicles does the 340-31006 fit?
It fits 20 BMW applications, including the 1991 318I and 318IS, the 1987-1991 325I and 325IS, the 1982-1988 528E, the 1985-1988 535I, the 1981-1984 733I, and the 1987-1988 M6. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
Is this for the front or rear brakes?
This is a rear disc brake hardware kit, cataloged for the rear position on the listed BMW applications.
Should I replace the hardware when I install new pads?
Replacing worn brake hardware along with new rear pads is recommended. Fresh clips and springs restore proper pad contact and help promote even, consistent braking.
Can worn hardware cause brake noise?
Yes. Corroded or fatigued clips and springs can let pads rattle, drag, or wear unevenly. If failed hardware is the cause of those symptoms, this kit replaces it.
