I've just put on some DBA 4000 slotted on the front and DBA 4000 standard on the rears with Ferodo Formula pads right around and this solved my shudder issue, I wish I did sooner

They will now take an absolute punish, glow in the dark and still pull up strong. Well mine did on the snowies cruise.

Did Ford ever fix this issue in the BF series?

We got Territory sized rotors, so in other words they are bigger. Not sure about the calipers though.

But the BF's do suffer from brake shudder still, though it is not nearly as common as it was acrross the entire BA range.

Standard brakes on BA and BF should be the first upgrade. They do not stand up well to much punsishment.

Is this our first UK based T owner???

WELCOME ABOARD MATE.

DBA 4000 Slotted + Ferodo DS2500 is a great combo, change your fluid regularly and fit some braided lines if you like. If you are super keen there is always the Brembo option but obviously more $$$

Cheers for the advice lads, ive ordered my braided lines from OZ and have sourced a DBA dealer in Scotland and he is getting me DBA 4000 6x6 wiper slots all round, just trying to track down some ferodo brake pads.

What are the id numbers for the DS2500 pads for standard callipers front and rear on a BA mk2 xr6t ute?, these would be appreciated so I can pass on numbers to dealer

Hey Guys, was looking at getting a full set of DBA 4000 Rotors and Ferodo Pads, and was just wondering what others have paid, I'm sure theres an answer somewhere already, but to be honest CBF searching... I have had a quote, but just want to compare really...

Cheers, Chris

no help here but I was NOT a fan of the dba4000 slotted/ferodo combination. they faded worse than ferodo/stock rotor combo.

the front pads alone cost me $140 I think, rotors (front only) are near $200 ea I think.

Chris I presume you have the standard BA brakes. When I was looking for them they were $370ish a pair for the front and rears. $160odd for front Ferodo's and cant remember the rear price.

I just got a set of rda front rotors on mine with ferodopads all round, fitted for $1700
