Product details
Black four-piston calipers and 12.19-inch plain rotors suit listed Ford/Mercury spindles. Disc-spindle machining and separate hoses are required. Bill Wood founded Wilwood Engineering in 1977, and the manufacturer is based in Camarillo, California. Wilwood designs and manufactures disc brake systems alongside calipers, master cylinders, rotors, fittings, brake lines and valves. The motorsport, street-performance and specialized ranges depend on components selected to work within a complete braking system.

Fitment & Compatibility
Use only the specific Ford/Mercury spindle and equipment combinations in the table. The selected applications span 1970–1974, with different year ranges for Mustang, Cougar, Falcon, Maverick, Comet, Fairlane, Ranchero and Torino. The 1970 Falcon/Maverick drum-brake entries start at the stated August 25, 1969 production date. Factory disc-spindle installations require three mounting holes to be drilled and tapped as DS-1294 specifies; professional machining and possible original caliper-ear clearance work are required. Drum and disc spindles use different bracket-hole arrangements. Aluminum hubs, bearings, seals and 1/2-20 wheel studs are included; the new hubs provide 5 × 4.50 and 5 × 4.75-inch patterns and move the wheel face outward 0.09 inch. Flexlines are separate; check the 220-9195 reference against the actual route and fittings. Any master-cylinder conversion also needs the correct pushrod arrangement. The wheel template controls clearance even where a 15-inch wheel is nominally permitted.
Listed models: Fairlane; Falcon; Maverick; Mustang; Ranchero; Torino; Cougar; Cyclone; Montego; Comet. See the supplied table below for each year, submodel and equipment condition.
