Good luck trying to get them back in place

If you can get this kit in a Ford Superduty caliper then I salute you. After trying every method on youtube I gave up and ended up just buying a rebuilt caliper from Auto Zone. This came with new pins, brackets and covers and a lifetime warranty. With the VA discount it was only about $50. So save yourself time and nerves and opt for a refurbished one.

Pros
  • Caliper Relocation Kits
Cons
  • There are downsides

Cannot install feather dusters

Waste of money and especially time. With calipers with dual pistons this small, it's almost impossible to install dust seals in place of a large piston. The only reason I'm not saying it's not possible is because they are installed on new or rebuilt calipers. I'm pretty good at stuff like this, and without wasting a day prototyping 5 different DIY tools, I couldn't install these dust seals. No way. As a result, I installed Reman calipers instead.

Pros
  • Calipers and parts
Cons
  • -

Returning to newly installed with this part

Worked great *but* the installation was quite labor intensive and I'm sure it would have been impossible for fewer mechanics to do it by hand. There is a procedure for installing caliper seals and I would not recommend this part to anyone who cannot figure out which edge/part to install first and/or who doesn't have an assistant who has rebuilt calipers before. It is best to purchase a remanufactured or new caliper. For those who have rebuilt calipers, it installs perfectly, as expected.

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Negative present

worked for me READ TO ME

Not a simple replacement. (Addendum: 2002 Avalanche dual piston rear caliper) I had to take off my old boots. Cut off the flexible part of the old boots. Then wrap the new boots around the stiffer part of the old boots. (These boots don't have the classic "glands" part to get them in place.) The way I cracked it worked fine for me, but to be honest I recommend not this kit. I've worked with cars for 25 years and I highly recommend you go to your dealership and find a set of covers for yourโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Brake system
Cons
  • There are nuances
