Why should I replace my brake hardware when changing pads?

Replacing your brake hardware when you change pads ensures everything is seated correctly and moves freely. Old, worn, or corroded hardware can cause pads to stick or wear unevenly, affecting braking performance and pad life.

What specific parts are included in this hardware kit?

This kit includes the essential clips and pins needed for the rear brake installation on compatible vehicles. These are the small but important pieces that hold your brake pads in place within the caliper bracket.

Does this kit come with everything needed for the rear brakes?

This kit contains the necessary hardware for one axle's rear brakes. If you are servicing both rear wheels, you will need to purchase two kits.

Product Details

This DFC rear brake hardware kit is made with spring steel, a strong material that holds its shape under pressure. It's designed to replace the original hardware on your 1995-2000 Ford Contour, 2001-2002 Mercury Cougar, or 1995-2000 Mercury Mystique. When you're replacing your rear brake pads and rotors, it's always a good idea to swap out the old hardware too. These small pieces are crucial for keeping your brake pads properly seated and allowing them to move freely, which is essential for consistent braking performance.

This kit includes all the necessary clips and pins to get your rear brakes back in working order. Using new hardware ensures that your brake pads can slide correctly in the caliper bracket, preventing uneven wear and potential sticking. It’s a simple, cost-effective step that makes a real difference in how your brakes feel and perform, especially after you've put on new pads or rotors.
