Detailed Description

Cardone 2C-5484 is a new disc brake caliper designed for direct replacement on vehicles that use a single-piston, phenolic-piston front caliper configuration. The zinc-plated finish helps match OE appearance while adding corrosion resistance, and the unloaded design gives you flexibility to reuse or select pads separately. This part number is used across applications such as the 2013-2016 Dodge Grand Caravan front left, 2013-2016 Chrysler Town & Country front left, and 2013-2016 Jeep Wrangler front right, along with additional Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram, and Volkswagen fitments. If you are searching for a front brake caliper for a 2017 Jeep Wrangler front right or a 2013-2014 Volkswagen Routan front left, 2C-5484 is listed for those applications as well.

This part cross-references Chrysler 68003697AC and Dodge 68003697AB for the same application.
