CARDONE Reman Disc Brake Caliper P/N:18-B5004
Restore firm, hydraulic clamping force with the A1 CARDONE Remanufactured Unloaded Disc Brake Caliper (MPN 18-4301). This unloaded caliper drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1988-1991 Chevrolet C1500 and K1500 and the 1988-1991 GMC C1500 and K1500 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details. As an unloaded unit, it supplies the caliper only; brake pads are not included.
Its remanufacturing process is earth-friendly, reducing the energy and raw material of a new part by roughly 80%. For even, balanced braking, it's best practice to service both sides of the axle together.
This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
What does this brake caliper do?
It houses the piston and seals that convert brake-line hydraulic pressure into clamping force on the pads, squeezing them against the rotor to slow the wheel.
Does it include brake pads?
No. This is an unloaded caliper, so it supplies the caliper only without brake pads. A mounting bracket, banjo bolts, washers, clips and pins are included where applicable.
Which vehicles does the 18-4301 fit?
It's a direct-fit replacement for the 1988-1991 Chevrolet C1500 and K1500 and the 1988-1991 GMC C1500 and K1500. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your vehicle.
Is it new or remanufactured?
It's expertly remanufactured with brand-new premium components, including new high-temperature EPDM seals, and is 100% pressure-tested before shipping.
Should I replace both calipers at once?
Replacing calipers as a matched pair on the same axle is recommended for even, balanced braking, though this listing is for one caliper. Follow the vehicle service procedure.
