What does the silver zinc coating do?

The silver zinc coating is applied to help protect the caliper from rust and corrosion. This is especially important for maintaining the caliper's appearance and function over time, particularly in areas exposed to moisture.

Do I need to buy any other parts to install this caliper?

This caliper is sold individually. You may need new brake pads, brake fluid, and potentially new brake lines depending on the condition of your existing components. It's always a good idea to inspect your brake system thoroughly before installation.

Is this caliper a direct bolt-on replacement?

Yes, this DFC caliper is designed as a direct replacement for the original equipment caliper on compatible vehicles. This means it should bolt up to your existing mounting points without requiring modifications.

Product Details

The silver zinc coating on this DFC front brake caliper is a practical choice for protecting against corrosion, especially on vehicles like the 1968 Ford Custom 500 or 1970-1972 Lincoln Continental. This caliper is built to replace the original part, helping to restore your braking system's performance. When your old caliper starts to stick or leak, replacing it with a well-built unit like this one is key to ensuring consistent stopping power and a safe drive.

This caliper is designed to fit a variety of classic American vehicles from the late 60s and early 70s, including models like the Ford Thunderbird and Mercury Monterey. The silver zinc finish not only adds a layer of protection but also gives a clean look behind the wheel. It's a straightforward replacement for the factory caliper, meaning it should install without needing major modifications, assuming your mounting hardware is in good shape.
