A sticking slide pin, a collapsed brake hose or a worn rotor can be behind a pull to one side or uneven pad wear just as a bad caliper can, and a fluid leak at the caliper is a third sign to watch for, so find the cause before buying one. If a failed caliper is the cause, this rear right unit replaces it.
