R&P Knowledge Hub
This caliper features a "Universal" body. To use it on the left or right side, you simply swap the positions of the bleeder screw and the brass fluid inlet fitting. Always ensure the bleeder screw is in the highest position after mounting to allow air to be properly purged from the hydraulic system.
Compatibility: Specifically designed for Dexter 6,000 lb disc brake systems. Ensure your mounting bracket spacing matches the standard Dexter 6K bolt pattern before ordering.
