Product Details

The Cardone Unloaded Caliper w/Bracket line focuses on remanufactured brake hydraulics built to OE fit and function. For this application, part number 18-B4840 is engineered for the front right side and is listed for 2003-2011 Ford Crown Victoria, 2003-2011 Lincoln Town Car, and 2003-2011 Mercury Grand Marquis, plus 2003-2004 Mercury Marauder. This part cross-references Ford and Lincoln OE numbers such as 3W1Z2B120AA and 3W7Z2B120AA for the same application.

Each caliper is pressure-tested and rebuilt with new premium components, including EPDM rubber seals and corrosion-resistant hardware elements where applicable. The phenolic piston construction helps resist cracking and pitting under brake heat and load, while the included bracket supports a complete front right brake service on the listed vehicles.

Common Brake Issues This Part Can Address

• Uneven braking or pull during stops on the front right corner
• Brake fluid leakage at the caliper body or bleeder area
• Sticking or dragging caliper operation
• Corrosion-related caliper wear on high-mileage Crown Victoria, Town Car, or Grand Marquis models
• Brake pedal concerns caused by caliper seal or piston wear

Installation Notes

Use the brake fluid specified by the vehicle manufacturer and replace fluid from a sealed container. Bleed the system thoroughly after installation, and inspect hoses, pads, and rear brake adjustment if pedal feel remains low. Silicone grease is used on floating caliper mounting pins. Verify the vehicle’s brake configuration and front right application before installation on 2003-2011 Ford Crown Victoria, Lincoln Town Car, or Mercury Grand Marquis models.

Quality Assurance

Cardone remanufactures this caliper to rigorous quality standards and pressure-tests each unit for consistent brake performance. The process uses new components and reduces energy and raw material use compared with manufacturing a new part.
