Product Details

Cardone 18-B4820 is part of the Unloaded Caliper w/Bracket line, a remanufactured brake hydraulics solution focused on OE fit and dependable operation. Each caliper is rebuilt with new premium components, treated with a rust inhibitor, and pressure-tested before release. The design includes a plastic cap plug to protect brake port threads, and the unit uses an M10x1.5 inlet port with an M10x1.0 bleeder port.

This part cross-references Ford and Mercury OE numbers such as 1F1Z2552AA and 2F1Z2552AA for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Rear brake drag or uneven rear braking
• Brake fluid leakage at the caliper body or bleeder area
• Soft or inconsistent rear brake pedal response caused by caliper wear
• Corrosion-related caliper sticking on the rear right corner
• Service issues on Ford Taurus, Mercury Sable, and Lincoln Continental rear brake systems

Installation Notes

Compatible With 2000-2007 Ford Taurus, rear right; 2000-2005 Mercury Sable, rear right; 2001-2002 Lincoln Continental, rear right; and 2000-2001 Ford Sable, rear right. Use the brake fluid specified by the vehicle manufacturer and follow the fluid type listed on the master cylinder reservoir lid. For floating caliper mounting pins, use silicone grease. Always bleed the system thoroughly after installation and inspect the brake hose, pads, and rear brake hardware before returning the vehicle to service.
