Bendix Severe Duty Axle Packs are designed specifically for applications like towing, heavy hauling and frequent stopping.
Features & Benefits:
Built to withstand severe duty performance demands with superior thermal stability and strength
Rotors feature a SurfaceLok™ Coating that is heat resistant and extends rotor life by limiting corrosion build-up
OEM driven machining specifications allow smooth pad-to-rotor contact, improving pedal response for safe driving in all conditions
Pads feature excellent fade and heat tolerance characteristics
Installation Tips
Suspend the caliper from the suspension using a Caliper Hanger to prevent damage to the brake hose
Before installing the rotor, clean the hub face with a Wire Brush to remove rust buildup and apply Copper Anti Seize to prevent future buildup. Rust or debris on the hub can cause rotor runout and lead to wheel vibration
Apply brake lube to caliper pins, clips, the edges of the brake pad mounting tabs, and the back side of the brake pads to ensure noise free braking. DO NOT apply lube to the friction side of the brake pads
Use a Caliper Piston Compressor to retract the caliper piston(s) and make room for the new, thicker brake pads
Open the master cylinder reservoir during piston compression to prevent pressure buildup. Keep an eye on the Brake Fluid level to ensure it does not overflow
After the job is complete, pump the brake pedal several times to push the caliper piston back up against the pads to ensure proper brake function
