Replace a worn or leaking rear right Tucson brake caliper on your 2016-2018 Hyundai Tucson, or the same caliper on a 2017-2022 Kia Sportage, with the Dynamic Friction Company Premium Brake Caliper, part number 331-03610. It is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications.
When you press the brake pedal, the caliper uses hydraulic pressure from the brake system to squeeze the pads against the rotor and slow the wheel. This disc brake caliper is part of DFC's Premium Caliper line and has a silver zinc-coated finish.
- Premium Caliper line: part of Dynamic Friction Company's premium caliper range.
- Silver zinc-coated finish: a zinc coating with a silver appearance.
- Rear right position: cataloged for the rear right wheel on the listed applications.
- Direct-fit application: fitment confirmed for the 2016-2018 Hyundai Tucson and 2017-2022 Kia Sportage.
Signs a caliper may need replacing include the vehicle pulling to one side under braking, brake fluid seeping near the wheel, a dragging brake or hot wheel after driving, and uneven pad wear. Diagnose the cause before replacing anything, because pads, rotors, hoses or other brake parts can cause the same symptoms. The rear left wheel uses its own caliper, and many technicians service both rear calipers together for balanced braking. After installation, bleed the brake system. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct fasteners, torque values, and whether the fasteners may be reused. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for complete fitment details.
