Dynamic Friction Company Disc Brake Pad Set P/N:1551-1551-00
Quiet, low-dust stops start with the right Ford Explorer brake pad — and the Dynamic Friction DFC 5000 Advanced Ceramic Disc Brake Pad Set (P/N 1551-2232-00) is built to deliver them. This rear ceramic pad set drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2020-2026 Ford Explorer and 2024-2025 Ford Mustang; see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details.
As a ceramic compound, this set delivers whisper-quiet stops and ultra-low, light-colored dust compared with conventional semi-metallic pads, plus a smooth, consistent pedal feel during everyday street driving. It's the rear-axle set, so it covers the rear pads across both wheels for balanced braking.
What vehicles does this brake pad set fit?
It's a direct-fit rear replacement for the 2020-2026 Ford Explorer and 2024-2025 Ford Mustang. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the engine-level fit for your vehicle.
Are these Ford Explorer front brake pads or rear?
This is the rear brake pad set — it replaces the rear-axle pads, not the front brake pads. Order the correct front set separately if you also need those.
What makes these ceramic pads different?
They deliver quieter stops and lower, lighter-colored dust than typical semi-metallic pads, plus a smooth, consistent pedal feel for everyday street driving, while staying rotor friendly.
How should I think about Ford Explorer brake pads cost and value?
This DFC 5000 set is formulated for the rear axle using selected OEM formulations and designed for long pad wear, so it balances everyday performance with durability.
Should I replace both sides when I do a Mustang brake pad job?
Yes — this set covers both rear wheels, and replacing the pads across the axle together as a matched set helps keep braking even and balanced.
