DFC's HybriDynamic formulation is meant to take the guesswork out of choosing the right brake pad material. It pairs dependable performance with low dust and low noise at a great value. It is a practical choice for a 2008 Ford Taurus front brake pad replacement or any other listed application.
Brake pads wear with use. Squealing or grinding when braking, a longer stopping distance, or pads that look thin on inspection are signs they may need replacing. Replacing the pads on both front wheels at the same time is recommended for even, balanced braking.
Are these the right 2008 Ford Taurus brake pads?
Yes. The 4000-1070-00 is listed for the front brakes of the 2008-2009 Ford Taurus, and it also fits the 2008-2009 Ford Taurus X and 2008-2009 Mercury Sable.
What is the DFC HybriDynamic formulation?
It is Dynamic Friction Company's 4000-series pad formulation. It is designed for a consistent pedal feel and brake response with low dust and low noise, and it is 100% asbestos free and copper free.
Are these pads easy on the rotors?
Dynamic Friction Company describes the 4000 HybriDynamic pads as rotor-friendly, with proven longer rotor and pad life and stable friction performance across a wide temperature range.
What are signs my front brake pads may need replacing?
Common signs are squealing or grinding when braking, a longer stopping distance, or pads that look thin on inspection. Have the brakes inspected to confirm the cause before you replace parts.
Should I replace the pads on both sides at the same time?
Yes. Replacing the pads on both front wheels together is recommended for even, balanced braking. Follow the vehicle service information and check the rotors while the wheels are off.
