How to service and repair the front brake calipers on Cadillac Eldorado?

The first step to work on the front brake caliper is to take it out of the vehicle. You should take care not to put your fingers near the Piston when blowing compressed air into the caliper inlet at low pressure. Turn your Piston boot and seal out with a plastic or wood tool to steer clear of metal instruments which may harm the caliper bore or seal groove. Eliminate the Piston boot and seal together with the bleeder valve cap and its valve from the caliper unit. Use low pressure unlubricated air to clean all passageways inside the caliper and bleeder valve before drying them with denatured alcohol. Replace the Piston when you find any surface damage such as scratches, notches, cracks, wear, and rust. Check the caliper inner space for lead contamination and remove it with crocus cloth. Replace the caliper if the condition persists. Replace the caliper now when you see damage on the seal groove despite checking it. Apply brake fluid on the new Piston seal before you put it back with the bleeder valve and cap. The j 26267 boot installer helps you seat the new Piston boot correctly over the Piston then position the Piston in the caliper bore. Reattach the caliper to its vehicle position.

How to replace the front brake calipers on Cadillac Eldorado?

First drain two-thirds of the master cylinder brake fluid and then hoist and support the vehicle. Make sure to note the wheel position before taking out the wheel and tire combination. Place a large c-clamp onto the caliper housing and put pressure on the back of the outboard pad to push the caliper piston into the bore space allowing easy removal of the caliper from the rotor. Put a seal plug in the caliper inlet fitting opening while you detach the bolt that connects it to the caliper to avoid fluid loss and contamination. After cleaning the brake caliper first remove its pin bolts and lift out the part. Transfer the caliper piston into the bore completely before placing the caliper over brake pads into the base bracket. Use a torque wrench to fasten the caliper pin bolts to 85 nm (63 ft. Lbs.). Attach the brake hose inlet to the caliper while tightening the fitting bolt to 45 nm (33 ft. Lbs.) and perform brake system bleeding. Re-mount the tire and wheel parts before letting the vehicle rest on the ground.

Cadillac Eldorado Brake Caliper is involved in the braking system and is basically a clamping device that presses the brake pad onto the brake rotor to bring the car to a stop. When the brake pedal is pushed, hydraulic pressure generated from the master cylinder reapplies the seals the on fixed or floating pistons on the caliper. Fixed Brake Calipers, attached to the mount with the pistons on both sides of the rotor, delivers high and stable performance causing the scrapping action in the rotors, whereas the floating Brake Calipers or sliding calipers glide over the rotor and apply the pressure from the only side of the rotor providing smooth braking. In the past years, Cadillac Eldorado has employed both the types of Brake Calipers with fixed calipers being pricier and high performing as compared to the sliding ones. The only disadvantage of floating calipers can be called sticking, which can lead to the need for change even when the wear is not very significant. Knowing these differences will help in properly managing this car's braking system particularly for the Cadillac Eldorado.
