Description:
1965 - 1982 Deluxe Front O-Ring Conversion Caliper Kit
Lip seal design are used on 1965 - 1982 Corvette calipers. Lip seal have inherent problems. When they sit for a period of time they leak brake fluid. When they are used on a Corvette with out of spec rotors, spindles, loose bearing or a Corvette that is driven hard : they can actually suck air into the caliper fluid area causing a loos of brake pedal. This problem is called (by GM engineers) reverse air oscillation. Because of these problems. GM quit using lip seals in 1982. O-Ring seals virtually eliminated all of these lip seal problems. If GM doesn't use lip seals anymore, why are you? Fits 2nd design Calipers Only.
The caliper needs to have SS sleeved already installed.
