Product Details

PowerStop Performance Brake Calipers are remanufactured brake hydraulics built for drivers who want a direct replacement with upgraded finish and refreshed internal components. The S5056 front caliper set is engineered for select 2007-2015 Chevrolet Captiva Sport, 2007-2009 Chevrolet Equinox, 2008-2010 Saturn Vue, 2007-2009 Pontiac Torrent, and 2007-2009 Suzuki XL-7 front brake applications. The red powder-coated surface helps resist rust and corrosion, while the rebuilt hardware and pressure testing support consistent caliper operation. This part number, S5056, is a practical choice when replacing worn front brake calipers on a Chevrolet Equinox front brake repair or a Saturn Vue front caliper service.

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

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Sticking or dragging front brake calipers
• Brake fluid leaks from worn piston seals or bleeder components
• Uneven front brake pad wear caused by caliper slide issues
• Corrosion on original caliper housings and brackets
• Reduced braking consistency from aged hydraulic components

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify vehicle fitment by year, make, model, and front position before installation. S5056 is a direct replacement style caliper set, and the included bracket and slides help simplify the swap on supported applications. Inspect brake pads, rotors, and brake hoses during service, and bleed the hydraulic system after installation to remove air from the lines. Confirm proper piston movement and check for leaks before returning the vehicle to service.

Quality Assurance

Each PowerStop caliper is pressure tested for piston operation and leak prevention, then assembled with new internal service components for consistent performance. The remanufacturing process and high-temperature coating are used to support durability in demanding front brake applications.
