Front brake pads part#

Does anybody know which part# is the correct one for my 2006 F250 4WD 4x4 SRW front brake pads? I thought there was a post somewhere listing part numbers but I can't find it. I went to the Autonation White Bear Lake parts site and I get 4 different options. All with different prices. I don't know which is the right one.

2001(BR-1069)

2001(BRSD-1069)

2001(NBR-1069)

5C3Z-2001-AA

All fit.


2001(BR-1069). Standard Motorcraft (aftermarket) semi-metallic

2001(BRSD-1069). Super Duty Motorcraft (aftermarket) semi-metallic, higher temp for commercial.

2001(NBR-1069). Ceramic Motorcraft (aftermarket)

5C3Z-2001-AA. OE semi-metallic as built on the assembly line.



5C3Z-2001-AA and BR-1069 are very close in performance, all of the aftermarket have a generic noise insulator less expensive then the OE tuned one, but better then most of the aftermarket pads out there.

You may find some other numbers in the mix depending on what they are doing now rather then years ago, but 1069 (FMSI number) was for your truck. 1068 rears.

With all things brake related, price will follow characteristics, unless your boutique aftermarket.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned the OEM Ford 1st line part number BRF-1438 (BC3Z-2001-E), which I believe is the correct part number for front brake pads for all F-250/F-350 trucks from model years 2005 to 2013.

For me that technically is for the later then 6.0 trucks, although since the dimensions of the steelbacks are the same they do retrofit. It's been a decade since I played with them, although. I believe those will have the cut-off chamfers rather then the tapered chamfers with slightly lees friction material volume.

You use the terms OE and first line in your commentary. Are those blue box?

Nope. That is the correct part number that will come up, if looking up the part number for front brake pads, for the model referenced. What will show up, are all previous part numbers, and then the one above, which is current. For all Motorcraft part numbers, if it begins with a 'BR' it means 2nd line. If it begins with 'BRF' it means 1st line which is OEM. The prefix, 'BC3Z' denotes 2011 model year F-SERIES Super Duty if it matters.

Are your "first line" blue box or Motorcraft?

They are Ford, with Motorcraft labels on the box.

So Ford has changed their marketing then, sorry for the questioning.

Originally assembly line OE parts were only to be sold by dealers in a "blue box" convention.

This is a NOS sample I have from my inventory when I was closing down the test facility. The 2005 rear pads, Ford labeled not Motorcraft. Anything with a Motorcraft label and two segment part number was a Ford aftermarket version with a different friction material, etc.

The friction material was Federal-Mogul's 2160 starting in 2005, with a friction rating of FE, drops a little when hotter.





I had to hunt on the South American net to find a full image of BRF-1438.

Motorcraft labeled but the OE friction material. And from looking at RockAuto, it is now sold outside of the dealer network like all "Motorcraft" is. Again these are the later model chamfers and probably the later noise insulator.





So things have changed (it's been a while). Are you able to use these for new car warranty within 3/36?

5C3Z-2200-AA is the part number for rear brake pads, which are completely different from the front brake pads. 5C3Z-2200-AA is also the old Ford part number, which has now been superceded to Motorcraft part number BRF-1068. If you notice the date of the label in the first photo you posted, it shows a date ID of 041105, which means April 11, 2005. The second photo of your post has a package date of 072814, which translates to a packing date of July 28, 2014.


Hope this helps.

On my 2016 F-250 CCSB 6.7L 4x4, the part number for the front brake pads is BRF-1457 (DC3Z-2001-E), which happens to be the same for all 2013 to 2016 model year F-250/F-350 trucks with the bigger brakes. So in answer to your question, yes.

Didn't need the lesson, I said it was 2005 rear brake pads.

Great, so you can use them under warranty, which means the noise insulator is exactly the same as the assembly line.

Great thread! I met the Performance Friction Corporation director of government at law enforcement trade show. Never heard of these brakes. Does anyone know this company? They sell their products at O:Reilly's.

I will go with Motorcraft. What size copper crush washers do I need when I replace the flexible brake hose line?

They were a competitor for the 30 years I worked in the braking industry, I met the deceased owner a few times decades ago, Don Burgoon, and met up with some of the test people during LA city traffic testing when we competed on programs to get the OE contract.

The products were an interesting, different type of friction material than the general flare. The PFC "Z" pads used to be OE on F-series for some time, and back in the 2001 or so time period I recommended the Z pads over our own that were OE on the Superduty. What was our OE was a very good material, one of my favorite, but not right for this configuration. They dropped the Z and went to Carbon Metallic series only, a different formula, and I stopped recommending. Some are fine with the CM series, but they were better in the police car application than the truck. LASD, of course, has its own unique methodology.
