Product Details

Cardone’s Unloaded Caliper line focuses on remanufactured brake hydraulics built to OE specifications using new wear components and tested assemblies. For this application, 18-7019 is a rear right Chevrolet Corvette caliper that uses a steel piston configuration and arrives as an unloaded caliper with a hardware kit. The remanufacturing process reduces raw material and energy use compared with producing a new part, while maintaining the fit and function expected for Corvette brake service.

This part cross-references Chevrolet 2621205 and 2621208 for the same application.

Common Brake Issues It Can Address

• Brake fluid leakage at the caliper
• Uneven rear braking on a Chevrolet Corvette
• Sticking or seized caliper piston movement
• Soft or inconsistent brake pedal feel caused by caliper wear
• Brake drag from deteriorated seals or internal corrosion

Installation Notes

Use the brake fluid specified by the vehicle manufacturer and replace fluid from a sealed container only. Floating caliper mounting pins should be lubricated with silicone grease. Bleed the system carefully after installation to remove trapped air and verify pedal feel before returning the vehicle to service. Confirm rear right placement and Corvette year coverage before ordering 18-7019.

Quality Assurance

Each Cardone remanufactured caliper is pressure-tested before release and rebuilt with new premium components to support reliable brake performance. The caliper is treated with a rust inhibitor and finished to help preserve the housing during service. Cardone’s remanufacturing process also reduces energy and raw material use versus manufacturing a new part.
