The floating caliper design allows for smooth pad movement and consistent braking force. The inlet fitting uses a banjo style with an M10x1.0 thread diameter, matching factory brake line connections. Included mounting brackets and abutment clips facilitate proper installation and alignment. The gray finish corresponds with casting numbers 973 and 983, ensuring correct part identification.

Installation Notes and Tips

Installation requires removal of the old caliper and proper alignment of the included mounting bracket and abutment clips. Ensure the brake lines match the M10x1.0 banjo fitting and that the bleeder screw is properly tightened to avoid air in the brake system. Since mounting hardware and pads are not included, reuse existing components or purchase separately. Bleed the brake system thoroughly after installation to maintain optimal braking performance.
