Product Details

This is the rear left brake caliper for your 2002-2010 Ford Explorer. It's the part that clamps down on the brake pads to slow your vehicle. If you're noticing a spongy brake pedal, a grinding noise from that corner, or if your old caliper is leaking brake fluid, it's time for a replacement. This caliper is a direct fit for your Explorer, meaning it bolts right up where the original one came from.

DFC builds these calipers with a silver zinc coating. This finish helps protect the metal from rust and corrosion, which is especially important for a part that's constantly exposed to road salt and moisture. A well-protected caliper not only looks better but also helps ensure smooth operation over time, preventing seized pistons or sticking components that can lead to premature brake wear.

When you're replacing a caliper, it's a good idea to inspect the brake hose and hardware for any signs of wear or damage. Make sure to bleed your brake system thoroughly after installation to remove any air and ensure proper brake pedal feel.
