Product details
Red six-piston AERO6 calipers work with 14.00-inch drilled/slotted rotors and BP-10 pads in this GM truck front kit. The wheel hubs provide the stated five-lug patterns, with separate hats linking the vented rotors to those hubs. Fitment is conditional on Wilwood iron Pro Drop spindles. Confirm spindle identity first, then check wheel clearance, wheel seating and the separately purchased hose installation. Founded by Bill Wood in 1977 and based in Camarillo, California, Wilwood Engineering designs and manufactures disc brake systems for motorsport, street-performance and specialized applications. Its calipers, brake rotors, master cylinders, valves, fittings and brake lines are selected to suit the complete braking system.

Fitment & Compatibility
The AERO6 caliper outline must clear the actual wheel; do not reuse a wheel-clearance judgment made for a Superlite kit. This package supplies five-lug hubs drilled 5 × 4.75 and 5 × 5.00 inches for the GM truck/SUV applications shown below. Its brackets fit Wilwood one-piece iron Pro Drop spindles, which are required and sold separately. Original equipment spindles will not accept the conversion. For the listed 1963–1970 vehicles, the assembly shifts wheel position 0.41 inch outward relative to stock brakes/spindles; the 1971–1987 arrangement shifts it 0.06 inch inward. Check the individual model's year and option row, then assess fender/suspension clearance and arrange suitable flexlines. The full application table below preserves each individual entry.
PMB Performance brings 20+ years of parts and fitment experience to brake selection. Send the actual spindle or axle details, existing brake package and wheel measurements for help checking this combination.
