Excellent replacement quality almost better than factory

Great price for a quality front brake pad for my 2013 Focus SE. Supplied with retaining spring clips (one per caliper) and lube pack. Installs easily. Make sure you have a 7mm allen key to remove the two caliper bolts from the bracket and swap out those pads. Remove the old pads and retainers, lubricate the caliper pins and contact points on the back of the pads, push the piston back into the caliper, install new pads. Ready. Most inexpensive replacement pads are noticeably cheaper in performance, but they aren't - they appear to be almost as good or better than the Ford Original Equipment pads. I have mounted them on stock brake discs with 35,000 miles and have had no problems. The original pads still had some life but started to squeak - these Bosch pads made no noise on the used rotors and seemed to be settling in nicely. I was told to be careful with them initially when using the original rotors (which weren't flipped as they were in great condition) and not aggressively hurl them in early in the install.

  • Great for a small home
