Key Features & Benefits

This kit basically gives you everything you need to rebuild your brake caliper. Inside, you’ll find new piston seals, dust boots, and sometimes even slide pin boots and clips. It's all the little rubber and metal bits that keep the caliper working smoothly. It doesn't include the caliper itself, just the parts inside it that wear out. The caliper is what squeezes the brake pads against the rotor to actually stop the car. This kit addresses the parts that keep that squeezing action happening without leaks and sticking. The piston seal stops brake fluid from escaping, and the dust boot keeps dirt and grime out of the mechanism. If those seals fail, you lose braking power, or the caliper gets stuck. It’s a pretty critical part of your braking system.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Well, brakes are kind of a big deal, obviously. When these parts wear out, you’ll notice if you’re getting a spongy brake pedal, pulling to one side when you brake, or even a leak around the caliper. Think of the dust boot as a shield protecting the piston from corrosion, and the seal as the stopper that holds everything tight. If those are gone, you’re looking at bigger problems and a safety issue. Rebuilding a caliper with a kit like this is usually a lot cheaper than replacing the entire caliper, and keeps your brakes working properly. You can find Repair Kit 230 and a lot of other brake parts over at Fixparts Online, but any auto parts store should have it too.
