The inlet fitting uses a banjo type with an M10x1.0 thread diameter, while the bleeder screw has an M8x1.25 thread size and is included for ease of brake fluid maintenance. The caliper comes in a gray finish and includes both the mounting bracket and abutment clips, though it does not include brake pads or pad wear sensors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Applications and Problem Solving\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplacement of worn or damaged disc brake calipers on Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResolving brake drag or uneven pad wear caused by faulty calipers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAddressing brake fluid leaks from caliper piston seals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproving brake pedal feel and stopping power consistency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpgrading to OEM-equivalent components during brake system overhaul\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEnsure compatibility with your specific Ford Fusion or Lincoln MKZ model year before installation.
