Detailed Product Features and Specifications

This remanufactured caliper from BBB Industries features a durable cast iron construction, ensuring strength and longevity under demanding braking conditions. The gray rust preventative finish helps protect the caliper from corrosion, extending its service life. The caliper includes a single phenolic piston measuring 66mm (3 inches) in diameter, which offers improved heat resistance compared to traditional metal pistons, reducing the risk of brake fluid boiling and maintaining consistent braking performance.

The caliper comes equipped with caliper slides and a mounting bracket, facilitating proper alignment and secure installation. A bleeder screw (M10-1.0 x 33) is included to allow for efficient brake fluid bleeding during maintenance. The inlet fitting uses a banjo bolt with an M10-1.5 thread size, compatible with standard brake lines for the Ford Windstar. Dust boots are included to protect internal components from contaminants, while anti-squeal shims and brake pads are not included.
