Product details
This anodized Wilwood AV6R right brake caliper uses a 7.09-inch radial mount and the 1.30-inch rotor-width configuration. It is sold as one caliper, with its piston and mounting specification selected for the complete brake assembly. AV6R is a forged six-piston radial caliper with a specific bracket offset. This exact unit must be selected by its piston material and bore combination as well as rotor width; the AV6R range contains configurations that are not interchangeable. Based in Camarillo, California, Wilwood Engineering has its origins in the company Bill Wood founded in 1977. Its designs and manufactured disc brake products cover calipers and rotors alongside master cylinders, valves, fittings and lines. Motorsport, street-performance and specialized installations each require components selected for the complete system.

Fitment & Compatibility
Match the 7.09-inch radial attachment to the existing bracket, then check caliper centering over the 1.30-inch nominal-width rotor. Use the right-hand caliper and keep the bleed arrangement in the specified orientation. The 1/8-27 NPT connection must use the correct fitting and seal. Check the full wheel envelope with the actual bracket and rotor installed.
