DFC Presents: Dino Puts the Ultimate Duty Performance Pads (aka MOFO) to the Test

DFC Presents: Dino Puts the Ultimate Duty Performance Pads to the Test Those with lifted trucks, trucks with large tires (35’s or 38’s), or off-road vehicles will understand: you sometimes lose performance and sensitivity because there is added pressure on the braking system.  DFC Ultimate Duty Performance Brake Pads solve this challenge in a number of ways: • They provide high performance braking at low speeds (like when you’re rock crawling) • They have a high coefficient of friction from dead cold, all the way to the highest of temperatures • They provide better brake balance and feel These are only a […]

Friction Friday: “Too Many Clips”

Friction Friday: “Too Many Clips”

DFC Presents: Too Many Clips Stop us if you’ve run into this: you order a set of pads and you have to sift through various types of hardware that are included in the box. Sometimes, the application isn’t even for the specific vehicle you’re servicing.  Shops already have multiple hats and headaches, with cars on the racks, customers waiting, and the phone ringing off the hook. The last thing they need is to spend time identifying the correct hardware. This is further complicated because hardware looks very similar, so there’s risk of using the wrong one and forcing it into […]

DFC Presents: A Commitment to Research and Development

DFC Presents: A Commitment to Research and Development

Product Research and Development is one of the cornerstones of DFC.  However, it’s not as simple as getting parts, cataloging them and selling them. Instead, we reverse engineer every single new OE product from all OE manufacturers and collect key data points. For example, does this part differ from last year’s part? How? There is added complexity when you consider that each OE manufacturer has a different discipline (friction, hardware, rotors, etc.) One example is friction. At any point we may source friction parts from Germany, Thailand, India or China. Each of these manufacturers has a different focus: one may be great at […]

Testimonial Tuesday is back! Today we catch up with Roger Gomez from County Brake & Alignment Plus Mufflers in Montclair, CA.
