NEW type of Camaro SS Caliper Brake Noise Dampener "Weights" implemented - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

SS/RS NJ · 12-30-2009, 05:57 PM

As reported on Homepage Blog.

We just received our first Camaro 2SS with what appears to be a better solution than the adhesive weights on the caliper. Here is a shot from my phone, sorry about the quality.

This has probably already been posted but just in case...

I must be missing something here, but why are there weights on the Caliper? The Rotor turns with the wheel , not the Caliper. Please explain, Thanks
