Product details
A 6 × 5.50-inch hub pattern distinguishes this black Superlite front package from the five-lug version. Its 12.19-inch GT rotors and six-piston service calipers are matched to Wilwood one-piece iron Pro Drop spindles on the documented GM truck/SUV applications. BP-10 pads and hub hardware are supplied. Inspect wheel pattern and year-dependent wheel-position change before selecting the rest of the conversion. Bill Wood founded Wilwood Engineering in 1977; the company is based in Camarillo, California. It designs and manufactures calipers, brake rotors, master cylinders, valves, fittings and brake lines for motorsport, street-performance and specialized applications. This kit is one configuration within that disc-brake-system range and must be matched to the vehicle build.

Fitment & Compatibility
These application rows require Wilwood C10 one-piece iron Pro Drop spindles; the kit will not fit original equipment spindles. The listed GM trucks and SUVs span specific 1963–1987 model ranges, so check the exact row and installed spindle. Relative to the original brakes and spindle, Wilwood specifies wheel movement of 0.41 inch outboard for 1963–1970 and 0.06 inch inboard for 1971–1987. Match the six-lug 6 × 5.50-inch wheel interface and allow for the resulting wheel position when checking fender, suspension and brake clearance. Spindles and flexible lines are not included. Use the complete application table below for the individual year, submodel, brake configuration and note attached to each entry.
With over 20 years of parts and fitment experience, PMB Performance can help compare the required mounting interface with the vehicle build. Share spindle or axle measurements and wheel information before ordering if anything is uncertain.

Manufacturer Warning
Applicable to brake pads only: Wilwood warns of exposure to arsenic, cadmium, hexavalent chromium compounds, lead, nickel, cobalt and antimony trioxide, chemicals known to California to cause cancer or reproductive harm. More information: P65Warnings.ca.gov.
