Wilwood DPC56 Red Four-Piston Rear Caliper for 1997–2004 Corvette C5 and 2005–2013 Base C6

The red Wilwood DPC56 is intended for the factory 12.00-inch rear rotor layout on 1997–2004 Corvette C5 and 2005–2013 base C6 models. This four-piston rear caliper retains stock-location attachment and uses 1.25-inch stainless piston bores. Confirm that the vehicle still has the corresponding original brake package. Bill Wood founded Wilwood Engineering in 1977. Based in Camarillo, California, Wilwood designs and manufactures disc brake systems and parts for motorsport, street-performance and specialized applications, from calipers and rotors to master cylinders, valves, fittings and brake lines.

DPC56 rear calipers attach directly to Corvette C5 and base C6 spindles with the original 12.00-inch rear rotor package. The four-piston fixed body accepts original banjo-style hoses; it does not turn a different Corvette brake package into this configuration.
