Wilwood Slotted Front Brakes with Red Six-Piston Calipers, Dodge/Plymouth Barracuda/Cuda/Challenger/Polara/Fury/Belvedere/440/330/Savoy/Coronet/Coronet Super Bee/GTX/Roadrunner/Charger/Satellite (1962–1972)

This red-caliper Wilwood front kit uses GT slotted, one-piece rotor/hat assemblies for the listed Dodge and Plymouth B/E-body drum spindles. Each six-piston Superlite 6R caliper mounts radially to a dedicated bracket, with replacement hubs carrying the 12.88-inch rotors. Confirm the installed spindle rather than assuming all brake packages within the model-year range use the same hardware. Wilwood Engineering was founded by Bill Wood in 1977 and is based in Camarillo, California. The company designs and manufactures disc brake systems and components, including calipers, brake rotors, master cylinders, valves, fittings, and brake lines for motorsport, street-performance, and specialized applications.

Fitment & Compatibility

Inspect hub fit, bearing seating and wheel bolt circle before the brakes are assembled. Positive 0.13-inch hub offset changes wheel position relative to the body, while caliper clearance depends on both the inner barrel and spoke contour. DS872 supplies the dimensions and installation sequence. Hydraulic flex lines are selected separately, and the rear brake package must be considered when establishing master-cylinder capacity and brake balance.

Match the individual model, year, submodel and brake configuration in the fitment table below.
