Get smooth, quiet everyday stops with the Wagner QuickStop ZD601 Ceramic Front Disc Brake Pad Set. It installs on the front axle as a direct-fit replacement for the 1994-2003 Ford Taurus, 1995-1998 Ford Windstar, 1993-1994 Lincoln Continental, and 1994-2003 Mercury Sable (engine: All).
Key features:
- Ceramic friction: Wagner OE25 zero-copper formulation delivers low-dust, whisper-quiet stops with a smooth, consistent pedal feel during everyday street driving compared with conventional semi-metallic pads.
- Even, consistent performance: a 100% post-cure process is designed to keep friction uniform throughout the life of the pad.
- Reduced noise: application-specific, OE fit-and-form design is engineered to reduce noise-causing vibration.
- Hardware: includes pad shims and abutment clips; premium stainless-steel hardware and OE-style lubricant are included in most applications. No pad wear sensor is included.
Worn, thin, or noisy front pads are signs this set may need replacing; if worn pads are the cause of your braking complaint, this replaces them. This set services the front axle, so it covers both front wheels as a matched pair; inspect the rotors at the same time for balanced braking. Manufacturer part number ZD601 · FMSI 7479-D601 (D601 steel, 7479 lining). Country of origin: Mexico.
