65-82 FRONT SILICONE HIGH HEAT BRAKE CALIPER O-RING CONVERSION (ND)

Description

Why go with O-Rings?

Lip seal design seals are used on 1965-1982 Corvette calipers. Lip seals 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 bearings or a Corvette that is driven hard; they can actually suck air into the caliper fluid area causing a loss of brake pedal. This problem is called (by GM engineers) reverse air oscillation. Because of these problems, GM quit using lipseals in the 1982. O-Ring seals virtually eliminate all of these lip seal problems. If GM doesn’t use lip seals anymore, why are you?
