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