When a caliper on the Ford Explorer seizes, leaks, or drags, the damage does not stop at the caliper. A partially seized caliper on your Explorer keeps the brake pad in continuous contact with the rotor, wearing the pad unevenly and scoring the rotor surface. By the time the caliper on the Ford Explorer is identified as the fault, the pads are typically worn asymmetrically and the rotor is damaged. A caliper kit from GeoBrakes addresses every compromised component on your Ford Explorer together.
The kit for your Ford Explorer includes the disc brake caliper at the correct left or right hand specification for the Explorer, either new OEM-spec or quality remanufactured to the Ford Explorer piston dimension and hydraulic pressure rating, brake pads in ceramic or semi-metallic formulation matched to the Explorer caliper and rotor specification, caliper hardware with slide pins, pin boots, and anti-rattle clips for correct caliper float on the Ford Explorer, brake lubricant for correct pin and shim installation on your Explorer, and copper washers or banjo bolt seals for the brake hose connection where required by the Ford Explorer application.
A caliper kit is the right call for the Ford Explorer in three specific situations. After a seized or dragging caliper, because the pads and often the rotor on your Explorer are already compromised. During a high-mileage Explorer overhaul at 150,000 kilometres or more, because caliper piston seals and guide pin boots on the Ford Explorer are typically at or beyond their service life. After a brake fluid leak at the caliper, because fluid contamination of the Explorer brake pad renders the friction material permanently ineffective on your Ford Explorer.
New OEM-specification calipers for the Ford Explorer are manufactured from fresh materials with no prior service history, the strongest choice for Explorer vehicles in high-corrosion environments. Remanufactured calipers use original Ford Explorer housings rebuilt with new pistons, seals, and boots, performing identically to new units at a lower price point for most Explorer replacement applications.
Calipers for the Ford Explorer are the most position-specific brake component in the catalogue. Left and right calipers for the Explorer are not interchangeable. Our vehicle selector confirms the correct caliper kit for the Ford Explorer exact year, axle position, and left or right side before purchase.
Should I replace both calipers on my Ford Explorer at the same time?
It is strongly recommended. If one caliper on the Ford Explorer has seized or leaked, the caliper on the opposite side has experienced the same conditions and age on your Explorer. Replacing both restores balanced, even braking and eliminates the risk of the second Explorer caliper failing shortly after the first is replaced.
Do I need to bleed the brakes on my Ford Explorer after installing a caliper kit?
Yes. Opening the hydraulic circuit on the Ford Explorer to install the new caliper allows air to enter. After installation, the brake circuit on the Explorer must be bled at the caliper bleeder screw to purge all air and restore a firm, consistent brake pedal on your Ford Explorer.
What is the difference between a new and remanufactured caliper in the Ford Explorer kit?
A new caliper for the Ford Explorer has no prior service history and is the stronger choice for high-corrosion environments. A remanufactured caliper uses an original Explorer housing rebuilt with new pistons, seals, and boots, performing identically to new at a lower price point for most Ford Explorer applications.
