Technical Specifications and Features
This disc brake caliper features a 10mm inlet thread diameter (M10x1.0) with a banjo and open inlet fitting type, allowing compatibility with standard brake lines. The bleeder screw included has a thread size of M7x1.0, facilitating proper brake fluid bleeding during installation or maintenance.

While brake pads and mounting hardware bolts are not included, the caliper comes with the necessary mounting bracket and abutment clips to ensure secure installation.
Common Applications and Problem Solving
- Replacement of worn or damaged disc brake calipers on Lexus SC300 and SC400
- Addressing brake fluid leaks due to caliper seal failure
- Resolving uneven brake pad wear caused by caliper malfunction
- Improving brake pedal feel and response by upgrading to a semi-loaded caliper
- Restoring proper brake function after caliper piston corrosion or damage
Installation Notes and Tips
Ensure compatibility with Lexus SC300 and SC400 before installation. The caliper comes semi-loaded with the mounting bracket and abutment clips included, but brake pads and mounting hardware bolts must be sourced separately. Properly torque mounting bolts to manufacturer specifications and bleed the brake system using the included bleeder screw to remove air. Verify inlet thread size (M10x1.0) matches your brake line fittings. Inspect all brake components for wear or damage during installation.
