When a caliper on the Gmc K1500 Suburban seizes, leaks, or drags, the damage does not stop at the caliper. A partially seized caliper on your K1500 Suburban 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 Gmc K1500 Suburban 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 Gmc K1500 Suburban together.
The kit for your Gmc K1500 Suburban includes the disc brake caliper at the correct left or right hand specification for the K1500 Suburban, either new OEM-spec or quality remanufactured to the Gmc K1500 Suburban piston dimension and hydraulic pressure rating, brake pads in ceramic or semi-metallic formulation matched to the K1500 Suburban caliper and rotor specification, caliper hardware with slide pins, pin boots, and anti-rattle clips for correct caliper float on the Gmc K1500 Suburban, brake lubricant for correct pin and shim installation on your K1500 Suburban, and copper washers or banjo bolt seals for the brake hose connection where required by the Gmc K1500 Suburban application.
A caliper kit is the right call for the Gmc K1500 Suburban in three specific situations. After a seized or dragging caliper, because the pads and often the rotor on your K1500 Suburban are already compromised. During a high-mileage K1500 Suburban overhaul at 150,000 kilometres or more, because caliper piston seals and guide pin boots on the Gmc K1500 Suburban are typically at or beyond their service life. After a brake fluid leak at the caliper, because fluid contamination of the K1500 Suburban brake pad renders the friction material permanently ineffective on your Gmc K1500 Suburban.
New OEM-specification calipers for the Gmc K1500 Suburban are manufactured from fresh materials with no prior service history, the strongest choice for K1500 Suburban vehicles in high-corrosion environments. Remanufactured calipers use original Gmc K1500 Suburban housings rebuilt with new pistons, seals, and boots, performing identically to new units at a lower price point for most K1500 Suburban replacement applications.
Calipers for the Gmc K1500 Suburban are the most position-specific brake component in the catalogue. Left and right calipers for the K1500 Suburban are not interchangeable. Our vehicle selector confirms the correct caliper kit for the Gmc K1500 Suburban exact year, axle position, and left or right side before purchase.
Should I replace both calipers on my Gmc K1500 Suburban at the same time?
It is strongly recommended. If one caliper on the Gmc K1500 Suburban has seized or leaked, the caliper on the opposite side has experienced the same conditions and age on your K1500 Suburban. Replacing both restores balanced, even braking and eliminates the risk of the second K1500 Suburban caliper failing shortly after the first is replaced.
Do I need to bleed the brakes on my Gmc K1500 Suburban after installing a caliper kit?
Yes. Opening the hydraulic circuit on the Gmc K1500 Suburban to install the new caliper allows air to enter. After installation, the brake circuit on the K1500 Suburban must be bled at the caliper bleeder screw to purge all air and restore a firm, consistent brake pedal on your Gmc K1500 Suburban.
What is the difference between a new and remanufactured caliper in the Gmc K1500 Suburban kit?
A new caliper for the Gmc K1500 Suburban has no prior service history and is the stronger choice for high-corrosion environments. A remanufactured caliper uses an original K1500 Suburban housing rebuilt with new pistons, seals, and boots, performing identically to new at a lower price point for most Gmc K1500 Suburban applications.
