New brake pad kit for ModulT GenI and ModulT GenII
Beginning this month, this new kit includes four brake pads and an accessory kit with springs, spring brackets and plugs.
However, it does not include brake pad retainers, which are specific to either GenI or GenII ModulT brakes.
The new kit fits a wider range, so workshops need only order a single part to replace pads for most Haldex ModulT disc brakes in their fleet. (Haldex-made brakes are also sold under several other axle brand names). The new offering also helps distributors and large workshops simplify their stockholdings and provide better throughput. It also reduces the chances of the wrong pad retainer being installed on the brake.
