Carlson Disc Brake Caliper Piston P/N:7839

$21.99

Description

Put reliable clamping force back behind your rear brakes with the Carlson disc brake caliper piston 7839. This REAR caliper piston uses brake fluid pressure to force the brake pads against the rotor to slow the vehicle, and it installs as a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 2006-2008 Dodge Ram 1500, 2001-2008 Dodge Ram 2500, and 2003-2008 Dodge Ram 3500 (see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list).

Brakes are designed as a system, and the parts need to work together for the best performance. Industry brake service experts agree that when the friction material is ready to be replaced, the caliper hardware usually is too — making the piston a smart part to refresh during a brake job.

OE-quality build: matches Original Equipment (OE) quality specifications.
Hydraulic actuation: harnesses brake fluid pressure to press the pads against the rotor.
Corrosion resistant: resists corrosion from harsh road conditions.
Made to tight tolerances: manufactured with quality materials to hold close tolerances.

If a seized, scored, or corroded original piston is behind your dragging or uneven rear braking, this replaces it.
