Product Line Details: Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Calipers

The Centric Premium Semi-Loaded Disc Brake Calipers line offers a balance between fully loaded and basic caliper assemblies. This semi-loaded design includes essential components such as the caliper body, pistons, bleeder screw, and abutment clips, but excludes pads and mounting hardware. This allows for flexibility in brake system maintenance and replacement, making it suitable for Lexus 4Runner and Toyota GX460 owners seeking a reliable caliper upgrade or replacement.

Technical Specifications and Features

This disc brake caliper features a cast iron construction that provides durability and effective heat dissipation during braking. The fixed caliper design with four steel pistons (1.89 inch diameter) ensures even pressure distribution across the brake pads. The inlet thread diameter is M10x1.0, compatible with banjo and open fitting types, facilitating proper hydraulic connection. The included bleeder screw (M7x1.0 thread size) allows for efficient brake fluid bleeding, and abutment clips are included to secure the pads properly. Note that this caliper does not include pad wear sensors or mounting hardware, so these components must be sourced separately.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or damaged disc brake calipers on Lexus 4Runner and Toyota GX460
• Restores braking performance affected by piston or caliper body corrosion
• Addresses brake fluid leakage issues by providing a new bleeder screw and sealing surfaces
• Improves brake pad alignment and reduces uneven pad wear with included abutment clips
• Suitable for vehicles requiring a fixed 4-piston caliper upgrade or repair

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure compatibility with your Lexus 4Runner or Toyota GX460 before installation. Since mounting hardware and brake pads are not included, prepare to reuse existing components or purchase replacements separately. Properly torque mounting bolts to manufacturer specifications and bleed the brake system thoroughly using the included bleeder screw to remove air and maintain braking efficiency. Inspect all brake lines and fittings for wear or damage during installation.
