DFC Rear Disc Brake Hardware Kit 340-54029 - 2022-2026 Ford Maverick
SKU: dfc340-54029
Overview
The Dynamic Friction Company (DFC) Premium Rear Disc Brake Hardware Kit (Part #340-54029) is a precision-engineered, OEM-quality replacement solution for the rear brake system on the 2022–2026 Ford Maverick and a wide range of compatible vehicles. Designed for drivers and technicians who refuse to compromise on braking safety, this kit restores proper pad retention, eliminates brake noise, and delivers consistent stopping power. Whether you're a DIY home mechanic or a professional shop, this is the complete rear brake hardware refresh your Civic deserves.
Key Features & Benefits
- PTFE-Coated Stainless Steel Construction – Combines PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) coating, vulcanized rubber, and stainless steel in a single kit. PTFE's two-coat primer/topcoat system delivers the highest operating temperature of any fluoropolymer, extremely low coefficient of friction, and excellent chemical resistance for long-term durability.
- Eliminates Brake Noise & Vibration – Includes anti-rattle clips and shims engineered to eliminate brake squeal, rattle, and vibration — even after new pads are installed. Replaces fatigued or corroded OEM hardware that is a leading cause of post-service brake noise.
- Restores Proper Pad Retention – Worn or corroded hardware allows pads to shift freely in the caliper bracket, causing uneven wear and reduced braking efficiency. This kit ensures pads seat correctly from day one, maximizing pad and rotor longevity.
- OEM Form, Fit & Function – Precisely designed to match OEM specifications with the same attention to form, fit, and function as the original manufacturer — no modifications required for installation.
- Corrosion & Heat Resistant – Engineered to withstand heat, moisture, road salt, and debris. Corrosion-resistant materials ensure performance in all weather conditions and climates, including salt-belt environments.
- Minimizes Brake Drag – Proper hardware tension reduces unnecessary pad-to-rotor contact between stops, helping to improve fuel efficiency and extend pad life.
- Sold as a Complete Rear Axle Kit – Includes all hardware needed for both rear corners in one box — no need to purchase per-side quantities.
- Designed & Tested in the USA – Engineered by brake experts at DFC's facility in Cerritos, California, and quality-tested before leaving the facility to ensure perfect fitment and exceptional performance.
What's Included
- PTFE-coated abutment clips (rubber-coated, high heat resistance)
- Anti-rattle clips
- Anti-squeal shims
- All necessary rear axle brake hardware components
- No modifications required — new in box, ready to install

Fitment & Compatibility
This kit is designed for the 2022–2026 Ford Maverick and is also cross-compatible with a broad range of vehicles that share the same rear caliper bracket architecture, including:
- 2021–2024 Ford Bronco Sport
- 2015–2024 Ford Edge
- 2017–2024 Ford Escape
- And many more — compatible with 368+ vehicles total
Always verify fitment using your exact Year / Make / Model / Trim before ordering. Note: Rear caliper brackets on vehicles with integrated parking brakes see additional mechanical stress from the parking brake actuator, making hardware replacement especially important at each brake service interval.
Installation
The DFC 340-54029 is a direct bolt-on replacement with no modifications required. It is recommended to replace brake hardware at every brake pad change to ensure optimal performance and noise-free operation — installing new pads on corroded or fatigued hardware is a leading cause of post-service brake squeal. Suitable for confident DIY installation; professional installation is also recommended for those unfamiliar with rear disc brake systems, particularly on vehicles equipped with an integrated electronic or mechanical parking brake actuator. Always clean caliper bracket sliding surfaces and apply appropriate brake lubricant to abutment contact points during installation.
Frequently Asked Questions:
- Do I need to replace brake hardware with every pad change? Yes — brake hardware is frequently overlooked but can become stressed, fatigued, or corroded within 1–2 years of service, leading to noise, uneven wear, and reduced braking performance. DFC recommends replacing hardware with every pad replacement.
- Is this kit sold per side or per axle? This kit is sold as a complete rear axle kit — covering both the driver and passenger sides.
- Is this CARB compliant? This is a mechanical hardware component (clips, shims, and springs) and does not involve friction material formulation; CARB exemption status does not apply to this product type.
