Product details
This black Superlite front hub kit uses 13.06-inch GT slotted rotors and BP-20 pads for the documented later GM iron ProSpindle conversion. Aluminum hubs and separate hats are included. It covers the listed truck, SUV and van applications only with the required Wilwood spindle fitted. Confirm the vehicle's precise production span, then check the larger brake envelope inside a suitable 17-inch or larger wheel. Wilwood Engineering, founded by Bill Wood in 1977, designs and manufactures disc brake systems from its Camarillo, California base. Motorsport, street-performance and specialized applications use its calipers, rotors, master cylinders, valves, fittings and brake lines. Correct component selection depends on the requirements of the entire braking system.

Fitment & Compatibility
The listed later GM truck, van and SUV applications require the matching Wilwood C10 one-piece iron Pro Drop spindles. Original equipment spindles will not fit. The table has distinct 1988–1998 pickup entries and later SUV/van ranges, with certain van applications extending to 2002; do not apply one overall span to every model. Confirm the correct spindle generation, five-lug wheel interface, full hub seating and clearance around the caliper. Flexible brake lines are ordered separately for the vehicle being built. Use the complete application table below for the individual year, submodel, brake configuration and note attached to each entry.
Use PMB Performance’s 20+ years of parts and fitment experience when checking a modified brake layout. The installed mounting hardware and measured wheel space are more useful than model and year alone.

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.
