CARDONE Reman Disc Brake Caliper P/N:18-B8046B
Bring hydraulic clamping force back to your brakes with the A1 CARDONE Remanufactured Disc Brake Caliper 18-4637 (also written 184637). This unloaded caliper houses the piston and seals that turn brake-line pressure into the force that presses the pads against the rotor. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1996-2000 Ford Crown Victoria, 1996-2000 Ford Grand Marquis, 1996-2000 Lincoln Town Car, and 1996-2000 Mercury Grand Marquis — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific coverage.
As an unloaded caliper, brake pads are not included. If a seized, leaking, or sticking caliper is the cause of your braking problem, this replaces it. Replacing calipers as a matched pair across the axle is recommended for balanced braking.
This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
Does this caliper come with brake pads?
No. This is an unloaded caliper, so it ships without brake pads. It does include new hardware such as bleeder screws, clips, and mounting pins, plus the caliper bracket where applicable.
What vehicles does the 18-4637 caliper fit?
It's a direct-fit replacement for the 1996-2000 Ford Crown Victoria, 1996-2000 Ford Grand Marquis, 1996-2000 Lincoln Town Car, and 1996-2000 Mercury Grand Marquis. Check the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.
Is the caliper new or remanufactured?
It's remanufactured to CARDONE's quality standards using brand-new premium components, new high-temperature EPDM seals, and 100% pressure testing before shipping.
Do I need to replace both calipers?
It's sold individually. Replacing calipers on both sides of the axle as a matched pair is recommended for even, balanced braking, though not strictly required.
What are signs my caliper may need replacing?
Signs a caliper may need replacing include fluid leaks at the caliper, a piston that sticks or seizes, uneven pad wear, or a brake that drags. Diagnose the cause before replacing.
