Wilwood Red AERO6 Front Hub Brake Package for Ford F-100 4x2 Drum Spindles (1968–1972), Drilled 14-Inch Rotors

The red-caliper AERO6 package combines drilled-and-slotted 14-inch rotors with aluminum hats and wheel hubs. It converts the matched F-100 front drum arrangement using six-piston service calipers, pads and the specified bracket and bearing components. Wilwood Engineering has designed and manufactured disc brake systems and components since its founding by Bill Wood in 1977. The company is based in Camarillo, California, and serves motorsport, street-performance and specialized applications. Its calipers, rotors, hydraulic master cylinders, valves, fittings and brake lines need to be matched to the complete system in which they operate.

Fitment & Compatibility

Verify the original F-100 drum spindle, 1968–1972 production application and two-wheel-drive configuration. Use DS1268 to check hub assembly and caliper clearance. Compatible front hoses, the master cylinder and booster remain separate installation components.

Check the application-specific restrictions for F-100. A shared model name does not replace the exact year and brake/suspension configuration. Use the fitment table below to confirm year, model, trim and brake or suspension options.

For a fitment check, give PMB Performance the vehicle details and the actual brake and suspension hardware. Our team has over 20 years of experience working through parts compatibility.

Check the Installation instructions for the full assembly and wheel-clearance requirements.
