When a caliper on the Cadillac 60 Special seizes, leaks, or drags, the damage does not stop at the caliper. A partially seized caliper on your 60 Special 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 Cadillac 60 Special 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 Cadillac 60 Special together.
The kit for your Cadillac 60 Special includes the disc brake caliper at the correct left or right hand specification for the 60 Special, either new OEM-spec or quality remanufactured to the Cadillac 60 Special piston dimension and hydraulic pressure rating, brake pads in ceramic or semi-metallic formulation matched to the 60 Special caliper and rotor specification, caliper hardware with slide pins, pin boots, and anti-rattle clips for correct caliper float on the Cadillac 60 Special, brake lubricant for correct pin and shim installation on your 60 Special, and copper washers or banjo bolt seals for the brake hose connection where required by the Cadillac 60 Special application.
A caliper kit is the right call for the Cadillac 60 Special in three specific situations. After a seized or dragging caliper, because the pads and often the rotor on your 60 Special are already compromised. During a high-mileage 60 Special overhaul at 150,000 kilometres or more, because caliper piston seals and guide pin boots on the Cadillac 60 Special are typically at or beyond their service life. After a brake fluid leak at the caliper, because fluid contamination of the 60 Special brake pad renders the friction material permanently ineffective on your Cadillac 60 Special.
New OEM-specification calipers for the Cadillac 60 Special are manufactured from fresh materials with no prior service history, the strongest choice for 60 Special vehicles in high-corrosion environments. Remanufactured calipers use original Cadillac 60 Special housings rebuilt with new pistons, seals, and boots, performing identically to new units at a lower price point for most 60 Special replacement applications.
Calipers for the Cadillac 60 Special are the most position-specific brake component in the catalogue. Left and right calipers for the 60 Special are not interchangeable. Our vehicle selector confirms the correct caliper kit for the Cadillac 60 Special exact year, axle position, and left or right side before purchase.
Should I replace both calipers on my Cadillac 60 Special at the same time?
It is strongly recommended. If one caliper on the Cadillac 60 Special has seized or leaked, the caliper on the opposite side has experienced the same conditions and age on your 60 Special. Replacing both restores balanced, even braking and eliminates the risk of the second 60 Special caliper failing shortly after the first is replaced.
Do I need to bleed the brakes on my Cadillac 60 Special after installing a caliper kit?
Yes. Opening the hydraulic circuit on the Cadillac 60 Special to install the new caliper allows air to enter. After installation, the brake circuit on the 60 Special must be bled at the caliper bleeder screw to purge all air and restore a firm, consistent brake pedal on your Cadillac 60 Special.
What is the difference between a new and remanufactured caliper in the Cadillac 60 Special kit?
A new caliper for the Cadillac 60 Special has no prior service history and is the stronger choice for high-corrosion environments. A remanufactured caliper uses an original 60 Special housing rebuilt with new pistons, seals, and boots, performing identically to new at a lower price point for most Cadillac 60 Special applications.
