Product details
This red-caliper Wilwood rear package combines drilled/slotted 12.88-inch rings with four-piston Superlite calipers and internal parking-shoe assemblies. The selected axle arrangement is a 12-bolt housing with original C-clip shafts and a 2.75-inch offset. Vehicle identification is useful context, but the actual flange, bearing and offset dimensions must be established before the conversion is ordered. 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
Check the axle directly and exclude special-end or C-clip-eliminator modifications. The application table's Ridetech front-spindle references cannot confirm this rear kit, so those vehicle rows need verification. Match the rotor-hat registration and parking-shoe alignment using the installation instructions. Obtain suitable hoses and cable connections separately, then check their movement and release. Compare the wheel with the complete clearance drawing and verify hydraulic balance against the front brakes.
Match the individual year, model, submodel and equipment conditions in the fitment table below.
