• Direct fit: Engineered as an OE replacement disc brake kit to match the factory fit for compatible Nissan Frontier and Suzuki Equator models, reducing the need for modifications.
• Semi-metallic pads: Pads use semi-metallic friction material to deliver reliable stopping power and moderate longevity for everyday driving conditions.
• Vented rotors: Front rotors are vented with a 11.14 in (283mm) diameter to help manage heat and maintain consistent braking under repeated use.
• Noise and dust control: Positive molded pad faces and a G3000 casting alloy aim to lower dust and noise for cleaner wheels and quieter operation.
• Vehicle-specific references: Includes OE reference numbers and aftermarket cross-references to help verify fitment before purchase.

Who It's For

This kit is ideal for Nissan Frontier owners from 2005 through 2017 with the 2.5L L4, and Suzuki Equator owners for the 2009-2012 2.5L L4, who want a straightforward, single-purchase solution for front brake replacement. It suits DIY mechanics who value an all-included package because the kit bundles pads, rotors, brake cleaner and brake fluid in one shipment.
