Raybestos Front Brake Kit — Pads and Rotors

Raybestos · SKU SAP-00004 · Our ref PGD1104C

Raybestos, a Brake Parts Inc. brand, sells rotors and pads together here for the front axle. While everything is apart, clean the caliper bracket, lubricate the pad ears and slide pins, and make sure the caliper moves freely, because a sticking slide is the most common reason a fresh set of front pads wears unevenly. Push the pistons back slowly and watch the fluid reservoir, which rises as they retract. Ask with your VIN and we match the kit to your brake package before payment.

A front brake kit contains both front rotors and a full set of front pads, so one axle is done in a single purchase. Fitting pads onto worn rotors is what makes a pedal pulse within a few thousand miles. Rotor size follows the vehicle's brake package, so the same model year can take different kits.

In the box: 2 front brake rotors; 4 front brake pads (one axle set); Hardware and shims where the application uses them.

Common questions

Will the Raybestos Front Brake Kit — Pads and Rotors fit my car?
You can order it now, and we confirm it fits before you pay. For this part, fit comes down to the rotor diameter and the brake package the car was built with, since one model year can carry more than one front brake size. After you place the order, tell us the car's year, make and model, or the VIN, and what the part is for, either in the checkout notes or in the chat on this site. A person checks the part against that car and sends the invoice only once it is right. If it is not the right part, we cancel the order and you owe nothing.
Is the Raybestos Front Brake Kit — Pads and Rotors new or used?
New. It is a new aftermarket part made by Raybestos, not a used or rebuilt unit.
What comes in the box with the Raybestos Front Brake Kit — Pads and Rotors?
2 front brake rotors, 4 front brake pads (one axle set) and hardware and shims where the application uses them.
What warranty does the Raybestos Front Brake Kit — Pads and Rotors have?
It carries Raybestos's manufacturer warranty. Raybestos's terms differ between product lines, so ask in the chat and we give you the terms for this exact part before you pay.
Does a front brake kit include both pads and rotors?
Yes. A front brake kit contains two front rotors and a full axle set of four pads, which is everything needed to do the front axle. Hardware and shims are included where the application uses them.
Do I have to replace rotors when I replace brake pads?
Usually yes. New pads bed into the surface they run against, so fitting them to a worn or unevenly worn rotor is the most common cause of a pedal that pulses within a few thousand miles. Rotors can be reused only if they are above minimum thickness and still true.
What is the difference between ceramic and semi-metallic brake pads?
Ceramic pads run quieter, produce lighter-coloured dust and are gentler on rotors, which suits everyday driving. Semi-metallic pads bite harder and cope better with heat, which suits towing, heavy vehicles and mountain descents, at the cost of more noise and more dust.
How long do front brake pads last?
Between roughly 25,000 and 70,000 miles. Front pads wear faster than rear ones because the front axle does most of the braking, and city driving, towing and hilly terrain all shorten it considerably.
Do I need to bed in new brakes?
Yes. A bedding procedure transfers an even layer of friction material onto the rotor face, and skipping it is a common cause of judder on otherwise perfect parts. Most manufacturers specify a series of moderate stops from around 40mph without coming to a complete halt.
