Today we’re rebuilding the rear brake calipers on a DeLorean — a job that solves common issues such as dragging brakes, uneven pad wear, sticking pistons, and handbrake imbalance.
The DeLorean’s rear calipers have some unique design quirks, including the integrated parking brake mechanism, which makes a proper rebuild especially important. In this video, I walk through the entire process clearly and methodically.
What You’ll Learn in This Video
• How to diagnose a sticking or dragging rear DeLorean brake caliper
• Safe removal of the rear caliper assembly
• Disassembly of pistons, seals, boots, and parking-brake hardware
• Cleaning and inspection steps to prevent future binding or corrosion
• How to correctly install new internal seals and dust boots
• Rebuilding the integrated parking brake adjuster
• Proper lubrication points and common mistakes to avoid
• Reassembly techniques that ensure smooth operation
• Bleeding the system and verifying brake balance
• Checking parking brake travel and function after the rebuild
This rebuild restores proper stopping power, prevents premature pad wear, and helps keep these iconic cars safely on the road.
