Product details
With black FNSL4R calipers over 14-inch GT-slotted rotors, this Wilwood kit is the larger-diameter Superlite EPB option for compatible C1500 rear axles. BP-10 service pads are supplied, along with the separate electric parking calipers and their control hardware. Bill Wood founded Wilwood Engineering in 1977; the company is based in Camarillo, California. Wilwood designs and manufactures calipers, brake rotors, master cylinders, valves, fittings and brake lines as part of its disc brake systems and component range for motorsport, street-performance and specialized applications. Each component must suit the requirements of the complete brake installation.

Fitment & Compatibility
The 1988–1998 Chevrolet/GMC C1500 applications below have configuration-specific limits, including five-lug 4x2 trucks and vehicles using Wilwood Iron ProSpindles. Verify the rear flange, 3.25-inch axle offset and 5 x 5-inch pattern; a year/model match alone is insufficient.
The 14-inch brake package requires a wheel-template check even where an 18-inch wheel is used. Axle preparation must meet the 6.61-inch maximum flange diameter, 0.050-inch x 45-degree chamfer and 3.09-inch register shown in the instructions.
Use the fitment table below to confirm the exact year, model, trim and installation notes.
The electric parking brake is for stationary parking, not an emergency-stop brake. Applying it while the vehicle is moving can lock the rear wheels and cause a skid. Follow the wiring and holding-test procedures in the manufacturer’s instructions.
