Carlson 41235 Disc Brake Caliper Repair Kit - Front or Rear

Carlson Disc Brake Caliper Repair Kit 41235

Carlson 41235 is a disc brake caliper repair kit for restoring caliper seal function on select Chevrolet Corvette, Cadillac XLR, Acura RL, and Pontiac GTO applications. It is built around the boot and square cut seals needed for proper caliper apply and release operation.

Key Features

• Disc brake caliper repair kit for service work on hydraulic calipers
• Includes boot and square cut seals for caliper sealing surfaces
• Supports proper apply and release cycle operation
• Fits front and rear applications depending on vehicle and caliper design
• Carlson part number 41235 for application matching

Fitment

• Fits 1997-2013 Chevrolet Corvette, front, D731
• Fits 2004-2009 Cadillac XLR, front, D731
• Fits 2005-2006 Pontiac GTO, front, Disc; D731

Detailed Description

Carlson 41235 is designed for brake service where caliper seals and boots need replacement to restore normal hydraulic sealing and piston movement. The kit addresses the sealing components that help the caliper function correctly during brake apply and release, making it a practical choice for maintenance on a Chevrolet Corvette front caliper, Cadillac XLR front caliper, Pontiac GTO front caliper, or Acura RL rear caliper when the listed caliper type matches the vehicle.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Solve

• Brake fluid seepage at the caliper seal area
• Sticking or slow-return caliper piston movement
• Uneven brake pad wear caused by caliper drag
• Reduced braking response from worn sealing components
• Service needs on front or rear disc brake calipers with matching D731 or D1090 designations

Installation Notes

Confirm the caliper code and position before ordering, since this kit is listed for specific front and rear applications. Inspect the caliper bore, piston, and sealing surfaces for wear or corrosion before reassembly, and follow the vehicle service procedure for brake bleeding and caliper rebuild steps.

Quality Assurance

Carlson designs brake service parts around the system-level operation of the caliper, with sealing components selected to support proper hydraulic function during apply and release cycles.
