Product details
Black calipers and 13.06-inch SRP drilled & slotted rotors are the selected configuration. The FNSL6R front conversion pairs six-piston Superlite calipers with 13.06-inch rotors for the DSE C10 drop-spindle setup. Its rotor rings bolt to separate short-offset hats while the existing matching wheel hubs remain in use. Wilwood Engineering, founded in 1977 by Bill Wood, is based in Camarillo, California. The company makes disc brake systems and components for motorsport, street-performance and specialized applications, including calipers, brake rotors, master cylinders, valves, fittings and brake lines. Each component must suit the surrounding brake system.

Fitment & Compatibility
Select this package only for the Detroit Speed and Engineering 1973–1987 C10 drop spindle, not an original truck spindle.

Each entry has its own year coverage. Confirm the DSE hub pattern and the 17-inch wheel template before assembly. Read the fitment table below for the exact year and option combination; do not apply one row's restrictions to another vehicle.
For help selecting the correct brake package, give PMB Performance the vehicle details and measurements of the installed hardware. Our 20+ years of parts experience help resolve fitment beyond a model name alone.
