Carlson Disc Brake Caliper Piston P/N:7953
Carlson 7972 front brake caliper piston for the 2010-2015 Chevrolet Camaro and other vehicles uses brake fluid pressure to push the brake pads against the rotor. Brakes work as a system, and this disc brake caliper piston is the piece that turns hydraulic pressure into pad force.
A piston that is corroded, sticking or leaking can show up as the car pulling to one side, a burning smell after driving or brake fluid around the wheel. These signs alone do not prove the piston is the problem, since a collapsed brake hose can make a brake drag too.
Fitment includes the 2010-2015 Chevrolet Camaro, the 2017-2020 Tesla S and the 2010-2019 Land Rover Range Rover. If your car is not one of these, find it in the "Vehicles it fits" section. The piston is a direct-fit replacement for these vehicles and matches Original Equipment (OE) quality specifications. The 2010-2015 Chevrolet Camaro takes two. This listing is one front piston; the other side of that axle is normally done at the same time.
