GeoBrakes carries a complete range of disc brake calipers confirmed to fit the Gmc Caballero, including new OEM-specification and quality remanufactured units meeting or exceeding original equipment standards for your Caballero.
The disc brake caliper on the Gmc Caballero is the hydraulic clamp at the centre of your Caballero disc brake system. Every time you press the brake pedal on your Gmc Caballero, brake fluid pressure forces the caliper pistons outward, squeezing the brake pads against the rotor and generating the friction that stops your vehicle. A seized, leaking, or sticking caliper on the Caballero interferes with that process at the source, causing uneven braking, accelerated pad and rotor wear, and pulling to one side that worsens over time.
New OEM-Specification Calipers for the Gmc Caballero
New OEM-specification calipers for the Gmc Caballero are brand-new units manufactured to the exact piston dimensions, seal specifications, and material tolerances of the original Caballero factory part. They offer the longest service life on your Gmc Caballero and are the strongest choice for higher-mileage Caballero vehicles or those operated in high-corrosion environments.
Remanufactured Calipers for the Gmc Caballero
Remanufactured calipers for the Gmc Caballero are original caliper housings completely disassembled, cleaned, inspected, and rebuilt with new pistons, seals, boots, and hardware. Quality remanufactured units perform identically to new calipers for most Gmc Caballero replacement applications and offer excellent value.
GeoBrakes stocks both new and remanufactured calipers for the Gmc Caballero to give you the right option for your Caballero and budget. As an authorized retailer of Cardone, EBC, Raybestos, and other trusted brands for the Gmc Caballero, every caliper purchase carries the full manufacturer warranty. Our vehicle selector confirms the correct caliper for the Gmc Caballero year, axle position, and correct left or right hand fitment before you place your order.
Should I replace brake calipers on my Gmc Caballero in pairs?
It is generally recommended to replace calipers as an axle pair on the Gmc Caballero, both left and right on the same axle, to maintain balanced braking. If one Caballero caliper has failed, the caliper on the opposite side has experienced the same service conditions and is likely at a similar stage of wear.
How long do disc brake calipers last on a Gmc Caballero in US?
Gmc Caballero calipers typically last 100,000 to 150,000 kilometres, but American road salt and moisture accelerate corrosion of Caballero caliper guide pins, slide pins, and piston seal boots, often causing premature failure on the Gmc Caballero well before that figure.
Can a sticking caliper on my Gmc Caballero damage my brake pads and rotors?
Yes. A Caballero caliper that does not fully retract keeps the brake pad in partial contact with the rotor between stops, generating constant friction and heat on your Gmc Caballero. This rapidly wears both the pad and rotor surface on your Caballero and generates enough heat buildup to damage adjacent components over time.
