Product Details

The Cardone Unloaded Caliper w/Bracket line is remanufactured to OE-level specifications using new premium components and pressure-tested for consistent brake performance. For applications such as the 1986-1991 Buick Riviera front right brake caliper or the 1986-1991 Cadillac Eldorado front right brake caliper, this part provides a direct replacement solution with the bracket and hardware kit supplied in the package contents. Part number 18-B4249 is also cross-referenced to Buick, Cadillac, and Oldsmobile OE number 18012691 for the same application.

What This Caliper Helps Address

• Uneven braking or pull to one side during stops
• Brake fluid leakage at the caliper body or bleeder area
• Sticking or seized front right caliper operation
• Low brake pedal caused by caliper-related hydraulic issues
• Brake noise or poor pad contact from worn caliper components

Installation Notes

Use the correct OE-specified brake fluid for the vehicle and replace fluid from a sealed container. Clean the mounting surfaces, inspect the brake hose and pads, and bleed the system thoroughly after installation. Silicone grease is used on floating caliper mounting pins, and the bleeder port size is M10x1.5. Confirm front right placement before ordering and installation.

Quality Assurance

Each Cardone remanufactured caliper is pressure-tested and assembled with new internal sealing components to support reliable brake operation. The remanufacturing process also reduces raw material and energy use compared with producing a new part.
