About the PowerStop - Rear OE Stock Replacement Caliper Line

The PowerStop - Rear OE Stock Replacement Caliper line is engineered to match the original equipment specifications for rear brake calipers. This product line focuses on providing a direct replacement that maintains the factory performance and fitment for Dodge Ram trucks. The L4895 caliper is part of this line, ensuring compatibility and reliable braking performance without modification.

Detailed Product Description

This disc brake caliper features a durable cast iron construction, which offers excellent resistance to heat and wear, essential for the demanding braking conditions of Dodge Ram 1500, 2500, and 3500 trucks. The floating caliper design allows for smooth piston movement, aided by the included caliper slides, which help maintain even pad wear and consistent braking force. The two phenolic pistons, each measuring 44.96 mm in diameter, reduce heat transfer to the brake fluid, minimizing the risk of brake fade. The gray finish provides corrosion resistance while maintaining an OEM look. The included mounting bracket ensures proper installation alignment, and the bleeder screw with an M10 x 1.0 thread size facilitates standard brake system maintenance.

• Restores proper brake function after caliper mounting bracket damage

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the brake system is fully depressurized before removing the old caliper. The mounting bracket is included with this caliper, but mounting hardware is not, so retain or replace bolts as needed. Properly torque all fasteners to manufacturer specifications. Bleed the brake system using the M10 x 1.0 bleeder screw to remove air and maintain brake responsiveness. Inspect brake pads and rotors for wear and replace if necessary during installation.
