Technical Description and Features

This disc brake caliper is remanufactured to meet OEM specifications, providing a cost-effective alternative to new parts without compromising quality. The cast iron caliper casting material offers structural strength and heat resistance, essential for effective braking. The hybrid friction material is engineered to provide consistent stopping power while minimizing wear on both the caliper and brake pads. The caliper piston diameter measures 2.000 inches (50.8 mm), which is critical for proper brake fluid pressure and pad engagement. Additionally, the M10x1 bleeder screw thread allows for efficient brake fluid bleeding during installation or maintenance.

Compatible Applications and Common Issues Addressed

• Replacement for worn or seized front disc brake calipers on Nissan Frontier
• Resolves uneven brake pad wear caused by faulty calipers
• Addresses brake fluid leaks from damaged or corroded caliper pistons
• Improves braking response when original caliper pistons are sticking
• Restores proper brake pressure and pedal feel in the front brake system

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the vehicle is securely lifted and supported before beginning installation. Remove the old caliper and clean the mounting surface thoroughly. Verify that the bleeder screw thread size M10x1 matches the brake line fittings. When installing the new caliper, confirm the piston diameter aligns with the brake pads and rotor specifications. Bleed the brake system properly to remove air and restore hydraulic pressure. It is recommended to inspect brake pads and rotors for wear during installation and replace if necessary.
