2004 Mitsubishi Pajero Brake Pads

Based on Mitsubishi’s factory service information for the NM/NP series (2000–2006) and widely used aftermarket fitment catalogues, the 2004 Mitsubishi Pajero is equipped with disc brakes and uses brake pads on the front and rear axles. That makes brake pads directly relevant for routine servicing and safe stopping performance on this model.

On this Pajero, the brake pads clamp onto the brake discs to turn the vehicle’s momentum into heat and slow it down. Good pads give consistent bite on-road, hold up to towing and off-road work, and play nicely with ABS and stability systems. Front pads typically do more work, but the rear set still carries a fair load, especially when the vehicle is packed for a trip or towing a van or boat.

For servicing, regular inspection is key. As a rule of thumb, check pad thickness at every service or roughly every 10,000 km. Replacement is due when friction material is down to around 3 mm, when the wear indicator starts squealing, or if there’s glazing, cracking or uneven wear. Rotors should be measured against minimum thickness and checked for runout and scoring
