Product Details

Cardone’s Unloaded Caliper w/Bracket line focuses on OE-style fit and service-ready construction. This caliper is remanufactured to rigorous standards, then pressure-tested to verify brake performance before it leaves the factory. New EPDM rubber seals, premium internal components, and a rust-inhibiting finish help support long-term durability in daily driving conditions.

This part cross-references Ford 1R3Z2552AB and XR3Z2552AA for the same application. If you are servicing a 1994-2004 Ford Mustang rear right brake system, 18-B4824 provides the correct configuration for that application.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Rear brake drag caused by a sticking caliper piston
• Brake fluid leakage at the caliper body or bleeder area
• Uneven rear braking on a Ford Mustang
• Corrosion-related caliper seizure or poor piston return
• Soft or inconsistent rear brake response from a worn caliper assembly

Installation Notes

Use the correct brake fluid specified by the vehicle manufacturer and bleed the system thoroughly after installation. The inlet port size is M10x1.5 and the bleeder port size is M10x1.0. Verify rear right fitment before installation, and inspect pads, hoses, and brake fluid condition while servicing the caliper.

For floating caliper mounting pins, use silicone grease as noted in the product guidance. New hardware is included, while mounting bolts are not included.

Quality Assurance

Each Cardone caliper is remanufactured, pressure-tested, and assembled with new premium components to support consistent brake operation. The process also reduces energy and raw material use compared with manufacturing a new part, while maintaining OE-style fit and function for Mustang brake service.
