Pad part numbers

Going to replace pads, and the advance auto parts website is a headache. I have the J65 (4discs) option, and so far I've come to the conclusion I need part Bendix MKD412. Description says "Pads; Semi-Metallic; w/RPO 1LE Performance Package; 4 Wheel Disc Brakes."

Just curious if this is right.

If you are going with Bendix, try to get the IQ pads...
Front PN#MKD412(IQ)

It is HIGHLY UNLIKELY you have the 1LE front brakes.

If your calipers are cast iron, you don't.

Order your fronts for a car WITHOUT 1LE. You'll have far better odds of not having to make a return trip.

Oh, I know I definately don't have the 1LE, RB. I'm not one of those people lol. "I bet it's 1LE!" lol.

But I do have the RPO code J65.

But my question is, on the advance auto parts site, it doesn't list pads for front and rear, from Bendix. And the way they word things, I'm still not quite sure what part #'s I need.

Hell, now I think I need Bendix MKD154, and I don't know if that is front, rear, both, 1 pad, or 2 pads lol.


Not sure if I need rotors either, I just have a terrible vibration (steering wheel shakes pretty hard) under higher speed braking (55mph). I'm trying to cure it, and going to see if I can check for warping or cuts here soon. Just gotta find time.

Then don't do what what you said here indicates you're trying to do.

These are the pads for 1LE. Don't get those.

Get the regular pads for cast-iron calipers. They will have "154" in the part number. That should be a set for the front.
