Product Line Details: Reman Caliper w/ Installation Hardware

The Reman Caliper w/ Installation Hardware line by BBB Industries focuses on providing remanufactured brake calipers that meet OEM specifications. This product line ensures that critical components such as caliper slides, bleeder screws, and dust boots are included to facilitate proper brake system function. The 99-17940A part number is part of this line, offering a cost-effective solution for restoring brake hydraulics without compromising on quality or fitment.

Technical Specifications and Features

This disc brake caliper features a cast iron body for strength and heat resistance, paired with phenolic pistons that reduce heat transfer to the brake fluid, helping to prevent vapor lock. The gray rust preventative finish protects against corrosion, extending the caliper's service life. The caliper includes a banjo bolt inlet fitting with a 3/8-24 thread size, compatible with many brake lines. It comes with a bleeder screw (3/8-24 x 1) for easy brake bleeding and dust boots to protect internal components from contaminants. The package also contains the mounting bracket (cast number 142295) but does not include mounting bolts or brake pads.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or leaking brake calipers causing brake fluid loss
• Restores proper piston movement when caliper slides are seized or damaged
• Addresses brake drag or uneven pad wear due to caliper malfunction
• Improves braking performance by replacing corroded or damaged caliper components
• Suitable for vehicles requiring 60 mm diameter pistons and 3/8-24 inlet fittings

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure compatibility with your vehicle’s make and model before installation. The caliper includes the necessary slides, bleeder screw, and dust boots, but brake pads and mounting bolts must be sourced separately. Use the included banjo bolt and copper crush washers for proper sealing of the brake line connection. Bleed the brake system thoroughly after installation to remove air and ensure optimal braking performance.
