Dynamic Friction Company Disc Brake Pad Set P/N:1551-0052-00
Built for demanding stops, the Dynamic Friction Company heavy-duty front disc brake pad set, part number 1214-0052-00, is a semi-metallic pad designed to deliver a strong, predictable friction level regardless of temperature, speed or axle load. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1971-1985 Chevrolet Impala, 1977-1983 Jeep Cherokee and 1975 Chevrolet Malibu. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.
When you press the brake pedal, the caliper squeezes the pads against the rotor, and the friction turns the vehicle's motion into heat to slow it down. As pads wear, you may hear squealing or grinding or notice longer stopping distances. If worn front pads are the cause, these Dynamic Friction heavy-duty pads replace them on the listed applications.
