Honda Cr Z Disc Brake Caliper Kit in US

When a caliper on the Honda Cr Z seizes, leaks, or drags, the damage does not stop at the caliper. A partially seized caliper on your Cr Z 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 Honda Cr Z 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 Honda Cr Z together.

What Is Included in the Honda Cr Z Disc Brake Caliper Kit

The kit for your Honda Cr Z includes the disc brake caliper at the correct left or right hand specification for the Cr Z, either new OEM-spec or quality remanufactured to the Honda Cr Z piston dimension and hydraulic pressure rating, brake pads in ceramic or semi-metallic formulation matched to the Cr Z caliper and rotor specification, caliper hardware with slide pins, pin boots, and anti-rattle clips for correct caliper float on the Honda Cr Z, brake lubricant for correct pin and shim installation on your Cr Z, and copper washers or banjo bolt seals for the brake hose connection where required by the Honda Cr Z application.

When a Caliper Kit Is the Correct Service Choice for the Honda Cr Z

A caliper kit is the right call for the Honda Cr Z in three specific situations. After a seized or dragging caliper, because the pads and often the rotor on your Cr Z are already compromised. During a high-mileage Cr Z overhaul at 150,000 kilometres or more, because caliper piston seals and guide pin boots on the Honda Cr Z are typically at or beyond their service life. After a brake fluid leak at the caliper, because fluid contamination of the Cr Z brake pad renders the friction material permanently ineffective on your Honda Cr Z.

New vs. Remanufactured Caliper for the Honda Cr Z

New OEM-specification calipers for the Honda Cr Z are manufactured from fresh materials with no prior service history, the strongest choice for Cr Z vehicles in high-corrosion environments. Remanufactured calipers use original Honda Cr Z housings rebuilt with new pistons, seals, and boots, performing identically to new units at a lower price point for most Cr Z replacement applications.

Signs the Caliper Kit on Your Honda Cr Z Is Due

• Honda Cr Z pulling to one side during braking, one caliper applying more force than the other
• One brake pad on your Cr Z worn significantly more than its pair on the same axle
• Brake drag on the Honda Cr Z with a wheel that runs hot after normal driving
• Soft or sinking Cr Z brake pedal caused by a caliper piston seal leak
• Brake fluid visible around the Honda Cr Z caliper piston boot
• Persistent metallic dragging noise from one Cr Z corner not explained by worn pads

Why GeoBrakes for the Honda Cr Z Caliper Kit

Calipers for the Honda Cr Z are the most position-specific brake component in the catalogue. Left and right calipers for the Cr Z are not interchangeable. Our vehicle selector confirms the correct caliper kit for the Honda Cr Z exact year, axle position, and left or right side before purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions - Honda Cr Z Disc Brake Caliper Kits

Should I replace both calipers on my Honda Cr Z at the same time?

It is strongly recommended. If one caliper on the Honda Cr Z has seized or leaked, the caliper on the opposite side has experienced the same conditions and age on your Cr Z. Replacing both restores balanced, even braking and eliminates the risk of the second Cr Z caliper failing shortly after the first is replaced.

Do I need to bleed the brakes on my Honda Cr Z after installing a caliper kit?

Yes. Opening the hydraulic circuit on the Honda Cr Z to install the new caliper allows air to enter. After installation, the brake circuit on the Cr Z must be bled at the caliper bleeder screw to purge all air and restore a firm, consistent brake pedal on your Honda Cr Z.

What is the difference between a new and remanufactured caliper in the Honda Cr Z kit?

A new caliper for the Honda Cr Z has no prior service history and is the stronger choice for high-corrosion environments. A remanufactured caliper uses an original Cr Z housing rebuilt with new pistons, seals, and boots, performing identically to new at a lower price point for most Honda Cr Z applications.
