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