Product details
Red six-piston calipers and 14-inch SRP rings distinguish this Wilwood front conversion for the specified Ford/Mercury V8 spindles. The separate hats and replacement hubs support 72-curved-vane Spec-37 rotors. Inspect the existing spindle and original brake configuration carefully; the broad vehicle list does not make all factory disc and drum spindles interchangeable across production years. 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
Verify the original spindle before selecting this 14-inch package. DS929 identifies 1965–1967 Mustang V8 disc/drum spindles and 1968–1969 V8 drum spindles only. Read the individual Falcon, Ranchero, Comet, Fairlane, Cyclone, Caliente, Cougar, Torino and Montego rows for their own year/equipment conditions. Replacement hubs locate the wheels 0.25 inches farther outward on each side, so check tire position and body clearance separately from the rotor/caliper envelope. Use the 18-inch screening drawing against the actual barrel and spokes. Hydraulic hoses are chosen for the production-year arrangement; inspect the existing master-cylinder pushrod and pedal setup before establishing suitable hydraulic volume and front/rear brake balance.
Match the individual model, year, submodel and brake configuration in the fitment table below.
