I own a 1997-2003 Ford F-150 with 5 lugs, the Detroit Axle 4WD Front Brake Kit is a fantastic upgrade for your truck’s braking system. This kit includes drilled and slotted disc brake rotors, designed to enhance heat dissipation, preventing brake fade during tough drives. It was paired with ceramic brake pads offers smoother, quieter braking, which makes it an excellent choice for both daily driving and off-road adventures.One fact many people don’t know is that the Detroit Axle kit's ceramic brake pads are engineered to produce less dust compared to semi-metallic pads, keeping your wheels cleaner for longer. The drilled and slotted design further improves performance by ensuring optimal braking in wet conditions, preventing the brakes from overheating.Although my professional mechanic installed this kit is had no trouble because it is fairly straightforward for anyone with basic mechanical skills. However, it’s crucial to follow proper bedding-in procedures to maximize the lifespan and performance of your new rotors and pads. Make sure to avoid aggressive braking for the first 300-500 miles to ensure the pads properly align with the rotors.In summary, the Detroit Axle delivers a reliable, high-performance brake kit that stands up to the rigors of a 4WD vehicle, giving you confidence behind the wheel without sacrificing durability or quality. If you're in need of a replacement that offers better stopping power and longevity, this kit is.Fun Fact: Detroit Axle originally started as a small family-owned auto parts shop in the heart of Detroit, known for its expertise in restoring classic cars. Over the years, it expanded to become a go-to supplier for premium replacement parts, while still holding onto that family-owned spirit, ensuring quality and customer service remain at the forefront of their business

Very good quality materials! Beautiful look and hasn’t rusted yet. Easy to install and came with new breaks. Absolutely can’t beat these prices. 10/10

5/5 on the product.Pro: Love how the product came with a bottle of DOT 3 and a can of brake cleaner because I wasn't expecting to see that in the package.Con: Was delivered by FedEx. FedEx lied about delivering the package on the 18th and said nobody was home. FedEx customer service was rude and hung up on me. Package was finally delivered on the 19th but looked like it was dropped several times. Nothing was damaged. Recommendation to use another shipper.

Fit as advertised

Not only cheap and great looking but considerable increase in brake performance. Best kit on the market in my opinion.

Detroit axle delivers a great product

I installed the rotors and brakes as recommended by the instructions, cleaned, and greased the parts. Everything went well until the rotors started squeaking, and producing a lot of dust. Within a week the front tires were covered in black dust. I took everything apart, re-cleaned the rotors, sanded the brake pads, and still the same. I have to take it to a shop, and they told me the brake pads are scraping the rotors. I will need to buy new rotors, AGAIN!!.

They work fine but I've never seen so much brake dust. I've done a lot of brake jobs before but after 100 miles the wheels are covered in brake dust. The pads aren't hanging up or sticking to the rotors. They look normal, with no grooves or discoloration. Both front wheels look the same, dirty.
