What does the silver zinc coating do?

The silver zinc coating on this caliper helps to protect it from rust and corrosion. This is important for extending the life of the caliper, especially in areas exposed to road salt and moisture.

Do I need to bleed my brakes after installing this caliper?

Yes, whenever you replace a brake caliper, you will need to bleed the brake system to remove any air and ensure proper brake fluid flow. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific bleeding procedures.

Does this caliper come with new brake pads?

This product is for the brake caliper only. It does not include new brake pads, brake lines, or mounting hardware. You will need to purchase those separately if needed.

Product Details

DFC is known for making well-built brake components, and this front left brake caliper for your 2008-2009 Ford Taurus or Taurus X is a solid example. When you're replacing your brake pads or rotors, it's often a good time to inspect your calipers. If yours are sticking, leaking, or just not performing like they used to, this caliper is designed to get your braking system back to proper working order.

This caliper features a silver zinc coating, which helps protect it from rust and corrosion. This is especially important for a component that's constantly exposed to road grime, salt, and moisture. It's built to be a direct replacement, meaning it should fit right onto your existing brake lines and mounting points without any fabrication needed. Having a caliper that moves freely is key to ensuring your brakes apply and release evenly, which is crucial for both stopping performance and tire wear.

This caliper is specifically made for the 2008 and 2009 model years of the Ford Taurus and Taurus X, as well as the Mercury Sable. Make sure to check your vehicle's specific fitment to confirm this is the correct part for your needs.
