Carlson Disc Brake Caliper Piston P/N:7061
Restore firm, even braking with the Carlson Disc Brake Caliper Piston (MPN 7232), a front-caliper piston that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1998-2002 Chevrolet Camaro [All] and 1998-2002 Pontiac Firebird [All]. Housed inside the front caliper bore, the piston transfers hydraulic pressure from the brake fluid to push the pad against the rotor every time you press the pedal.
A pitted, seized, or leaking piston can cause a spongy pedal, dragging brakes, or uneven pad wear. If a failed caliper piston is the cause, this replaces it. Each application uses 4 pistons; order the quantity your vehicle requires and inspect the caliper bore, seals, and boots during installation.
