Carlson Disc Brake Caliper Piston P/N:7953
Carlson 7149 rear brake caliper piston for the 2000-2005 Toyota Celica pushes the brake pad against the rotor when brake fluid pressure rises. This disc brake caliper piston moves inside the caliper bore each time you press the pedal.
A rear brake that drags, a fluid leak at the caliper or pads that wear unevenly can be signs of a seized or pitted piston. These signs alone do not prove the piston is at fault, since a sticking slide pin can make a brake drag too. Replace the rear pistons as a pair; this listing is one piston.
This piston is a direct-fit replacement for the 2000-2005 Toyota Celica, which takes two.
