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