Built on selected original equipment manufacturer formulations, the Dynamic Friction Company DFC 5000 Advanced semi-metallic front brake pads (part number 1552-0369-00) are designed to deliver a consistent pedal feel and superb brake response. This disc brake pad set fits many vehicles, among them the 1994-1999 Dodge Ram 1500, 1988-1991 Chevrolet K1500 and 1988-1989 Chevrolet C1500, as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications.
- Axle-specific formulation: Dynamic Friction formulates its pads for each axle, and this set is cataloged for the front position.
- Long pad wear: the DFC 5000 Advanced semi-metallic friction material is designed for long pad life.
- Rotor friendly: designed to be gentle on rotors.
- OE formulations: the friction material draws on selected original equipment manufacturer formulations.
When you press the brake pedal, the caliper squeezes the pads against the spinning rotor, and that friction slows the vehicle. Pads wear down with normal use, so they are a routine service item. Squealing, grinding, a longer stopping distance or pads worn thin on inspection are signs the front pads may need replacing, though other brake parts can cause similar symptoms, so inspect the whole system first. For even, balanced braking, replace the pads on both front wheels at the same time. For engine and trim details, and for every other vehicle this part fits, see the Buyer's Guide tab.
