Detailed Product Overview

Cardone 18-B4509 is remanufactured to OE specifications and pressure-tested for brake system integrity. The caliper uses new premium internal components, including high-temperature EPDM rubber seals and durable piston materials, to support reliable hydraulic operation. This rear left brake caliper is a direct replacement for vehicles such as the 1993 Ford Mustang, 1989-1992 Ford Taurus, 1987-1988 Ford Thunderbird, 1988-1992 Lincoln Continental, 1991-1992 Lincoln Mark VII, 1990-1992 Mercury Sable, and 1987-1988 Mercury Cougar.

This part cross-references Ford (e.g., E7SZ2553A, F3ZZ2553A) for the same application.

What This Caliper Helps Address

• Brake drag or uneven rear brake operation
• Low brake pedal caused by caliper seal or hydraulic issues
