Carlson Disc Brake Caliper Piston P/N:7175

Transfer hydraulic pressure to the front brake pads with the Carlson Disc Brake Caliper Piston, P/N 7175. It fits as a direct-fit replacement for the front calipers on a range of Dodge and Mitsubishi models, including the 1991-1996 Dodge Stealth, 1991-1999 Mitsubishi 3000GT, 1992-2004 Mitsubishi Diamante, and several others — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of applications.

The caliper piston is the component that transfers hydraulic pressure from the brake fluid to the brake pad, pushing the pad against the rotor when you apply the brakes. A pitted, corroded, or seized original can cause the caliper to stick or drag.

• Front position: designed for the front disc brake caliper on the listed applications.
• Hydraulic clamping: transfers fluid pressure to press the pad against the rotor.
• Direct-fit replacement: replaces the original piston for the listed vehicles.
• Sold individually: order the quantity your caliper requires.

Signs the original piston may need replacing include a brake that drags or a caliper that sticks, often traced to a corroded or pitted piston bore. Diagnose the cause before replacing. Manufacturer part number 7175.
