Why You Care About the Calipers on the Car Braking System of Your Classic

Many vehicle enthusiasts make the same mistakes when it comes to fixing up their first vehicle. They might put more money into the appearance of their car than they do the performance. Of course you want your vehicle to look great, but more importantly, it needs to have the best possible performance on the road. That's why people will put so much emphasis on a seemingly small part of their vehicle like the calipers. As a part of your car braking system, your calipers play a huge role in the safety and performance of your vehicle. 

Your calipers are part of the system that actually pushes the brake pads against your rotors, creating the friction that's needed to stop your car. If your calipers are bad, you are going to have issues bringing your car to a full stop. Car enthusiasts sometimes choose to do use a disc brake conversion kit with colored calipers, such as the powder-coated red calipers in our 1962-1972 Mopar B&E Body Standard Disc Brake Conversion Kit. The calipers will peek through your wheels to add a touch of flash to your vehicle. 

We offer several disc brake conversion kits for various car model braking systems, and many of them are available with a colored caliper option. If you are looking for something that both boosts the performance of your vehicle as well as the overall appearance, this is the way to go.
