Detailed Description

Nugeon 97P17659A is a remanufactured disc brake caliper for the front right position on 1997-1998 Dodge Dakota models. The TechShield 360 line focuses on brake hydraulics with a corrosion-resistant finish and service-ready components, making this caliper a practical OE-style replacement for restoring front brake function. It uses a 3-inch (66 mm) phenolic piston, a banjo bolt inlet, and a bleeder screw with 3/8-24 thread specification.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application. The Nugeon 97P17659A is a direct-fit option for Dodge Dakota front right brake repair when the original caliper is sticking, leaking, or no longer maintaining proper hydraulic pressure.

What It Helps Fix

  • Brake fluid leakage at the caliper body or bleeder area
  • Uneven front braking on the Dodge Dakota
  • Sticking or seized caliper piston movement
  • Poor brake pedal response caused by hydraulic caliper wear
  • Corrosion-related caliper replacement needs

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the front right position and confirm the banjo bolt inlet, M10-1.25 thread size, and 3/8-24 bleeder screw specification before installation. Inspect brake hoses, pads, and rotor condition during service, and bleed the brake system thoroughly after caliper replacement. Use new copper crush washers where applicable and follow the vehicle service procedure for torque and bleeding sequence.

Quality Assurance

TechShield 360 is Nugeon’s brake hydraulics product line, built around remanufactured calipers with rust-preventative finishing and service-focused component selection. Part number 97P17659A is manufactured for the confirmed 1997-1998 Dodge Dakota front right application.
