Dorman - First Stop Disc Brake Caliper Bushing P/N:HW16453
Keep the rear disc brake caliper sliding freely and sealed against grit and moisture with the Dorman - First Stop Disc Brake Caliper Bushing / Pin Boot Kit HW16060. This rear caliper hardware installs as a direct replacement on Mazda, Ford, and Mercury applications including the 1990-1994 Mazda 323, 1991-2003 Ford Escort, and 1991-1999 Mercury Tracer (full fitment below). The caliper's slide pins ride in these boots/bushings so the caliper can float and load the pads evenly; when the boots tear, debris and water reach the pins and can cause them to stick. If worn or torn boots are the cause, this kit helps restore that protected, free-moving interface.
This part is cataloged under both names: Disc Brake Caliper Bushing and Pin Boot Kit.
