If you plan on keeping vehicles for a few years remember part number and take

When installing new pads it is a very good idea to buy a small bottle of Anti-Squeak. It usually is red and looks like glue. Apply it evenly to the backing plates of the pads only. Let it sit for several minutes then install the pads.
