These front red calipers with brackets are designed to directly replace the original equipment, ensuring a seamless fitment and enhanced braking capability.

Manufactured by Power Stop, a reputable brand renowned for its commitment to quality and innovation in the braking industry, these calipers are remanufactured at their Chicago, IL facility. The process includes a rigorous electrostatic high-temperature red powder coating that not only imparts an attractive finish but also provides superior resistance to rust and corrosion. This coating significantly extends the service life of the calipers, maintaining both aesthetics and functionality under demanding conditions.

Each caliper undergoes a comprehensive 100% pressure test to verify piston operation and to eliminate the risk of leaks, ensuring safety and reliability. The assembly includes new pistons, seals, slide pins (where applicable), dust boots, bleeder screws, and stainless steel brake pad abutment clips, all meticulously installed to meet stringent quality standards. High-temperature EPDM rubber dust boots combined with premium silicone lubricant contribute to smoother operation and durability, particularly in extreme environments.

These performance brake calipers are engineered to deliver consistent and reliable stopping power, making them an ideal choice for enthusiasts seeking to maintain or improve their vehicle’s braking performance without compromising on fitment or safety. The vibrant red finish adds a distinctive visual appeal that complements both stock and custom wheel designs, enhancing the overall appearance of the vehicle’s front end.
