The integral parking brake design integrates the parking brake mechanism directly into the caliper, eliminating the need for separate components. With a single piston measuring 1.787 inches in diameter, this caliper applies even pressure to the brake pads for effective stopping power.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe included bracket is designed with a 12.000 mm mounting hole size and a 1.750 thread pitch, ensuring compatibility with the specified vehicle models. The bleeder screw thread size of M10x1 allows for proper brake fluid bleeding during maintenance. The semi-loaded configuration means the caliper comes partially assembled, simplifying installation without sacrificing quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAbout the R-Line; Friction-Ready Caliper, Remanufactured; Includes Bracket\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Raybestos R-Line; Friction-Ready Caliper, Remanufactured; Includes Bracket product line focuses on providing remanufactured calipers that are ready for immediate installation with friction material compatibility.
