Dynamic Friction Company Disc Brake Hardware Kit P/N:340-54022
Refresh the small parts that keep your front brakes quiet and properly located with the Dynamic Friction Company Disc Brake Hardware Kit (P/N 340-63003, also written 34063003). This front disc brake hardware kit is a direct-fit replacement for the 1979-1983 Mercedes-Benz 240D, 1979-1981 Mercedes-Benz 280CE, 1979-1981 Mercedes-Benz 280E, 1980-1985 Mercedes-Benz 300CD, 1980-1985 Mercedes-Benz 300D, and 1979-1985 Mercedes-Benz 300TD. When you install new pads, worn or fatigued clips and retainers should be replaced too, and this DFC kit supplies those front-axle pieces.
Reusing tired hardware can leave pads binding or rattling, so fitting fresh clips and springs during a pad job is good practice. Order one kit per front axle for a complete hardware refresh.
What does this brake hardware kit do?
It supplies the clips, springs, and retainers that locate and hold the front disc brake pads, keeping them properly positioned and allowing free movement during braking.
Which vehicles does the DFC 340-63003 fit?
It is a direct-fit front application for the 1979-1983 Mercedes-Benz 240D, 1979-1981 280CE and 280E, 1980-1985 300CD and 300D, and 1979-1985 300TD. See the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your vehicle.
Is this a front or rear kit?
This is a front disc brake hardware kit. It supplies the hardware for the front axle only.
Should I replace the hardware when I install new pads?
It is good practice. Worn or corroded clips and springs can let pads bind or rattle, so fitting fresh hardware during a pad job helps the new pads seat and move correctly.
