Dynamic Friction Company Disc Brake Pad Set P/N:1551-1551-00
Designed to deliver a consistent pedal feel and superb brake response, the Dynamic Friction Company DFC 5000 Advanced Ceramic front brake pads, part number 1551-0812-00, are built for everyday stopping duty. This disc brake pad set is a direct-fit replacement for the 2000-2002 Toyota Tundra and 2001-2002 Toyota Sequoia. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific details.
When you press the brake pedal, the caliper clamps the pads against the spinning rotor, and the friction between them slows the vehicle. As the ceramic friction material wears down, stopping performance and pedal feel can change. Signs your front pads may need replacing include squealing or grinding when braking, longer stopping distances, or friction material that looks thin during a tire rotation or brake inspection. Because brake noise and vibration can have other causes, have the brake system inspected before ordering parts.
For even, balanced braking, replace the front pads on both sides at the same time, and inspect the rotors and brake hardware as directed by the vehicle's service information.
Is this a Toyota Tundra brake pad set that also fits the Sequoia?
Yes. It is listed as a direct-fit front pad set for the 2000-2002 Toyota Tundra and the 2001-2002 Toyota Sequoia. The Buyer's Guide tab shows the engine-level details.
What friction material do these brake pads use?
These are DFC 5000 Advanced pads with a ceramic formulation, drawing on selected original equipment manufacturer formulations.
Are these pads hard on brake rotors?
Dynamic Friction Company describes these pads as rotor friendly and formulated for long pad wear.
What are signs my front brake pads may need replacing?
Common signs include squealing or grinding when braking, longer stopping distances, or thin friction material at inspection. Noise can have other causes, so inspect the brakes first.
Should I replace the pads on both front wheels at once?
Yes. Replacing the front pads on both sides together gives even, balanced braking. Inspect the rotors and hardware as directed by the vehicle's service information.
