Detailed Description

Nugeon 97-17279A is a reman caliper built for front right brake service on Chevrolet Caprice and Chevrolet Commercial Chassis applications listed above. It is configured with a single 75 mm piston, a banjo bolt inlet, and M10-1.5 thread sizing at the inlet and bleeder locations for proper hydraulic connection. The grey rust preventative finish and cast iron construction support a direct replacement approach for brake repair work where the original caliper has seized, leaked, or lost clamping consistency. If you are sourcing a front right Chevrolet Caprice brake caliper or a remanufactured caliper for a 1994 Chevrolet Commercial Chassis, 97-17279A is the matching part number to verify.

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

What It Helps Address

• Brake fluid leakage from a worn caliper body or piston seal area
• Uneven front brake response on the right side
• Sticking or seized caliper movement
• Soft or inconsistent brake pedal feel caused by caliper wear
• Brake drag or pull related to caliper hydraulic issues

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify front right fitment before installation on 1994-1996 Chevrolet Caprice Police or Taxi models and 1994 Chevrolet Commercial Chassis vehicles with an 11-inch rear drum. Confirm the banjo bolt connection, inlet thread size, and bleeder screw thread size against the original caliper before bleeding the system. Replace brake fluid as needed, inspect hoses and pads during service, and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s brake bleeding procedure after installation.

Quality Assurance

This Nugeon remanufactured caliper is built from cast iron and finished with a rust preventative coating for brake system service. The reman process restores the caliper for hydraulic brake replacement use while retaining the specified OE-style mounting and port configuration for the listed Chevrolet applications.
