Product details
The red SRP front kit provides 12.88-inch, 1.25-inch-thick rotors and FNSL6R calipers for specified GM six-lug 4x4 hubs. Installation still requires the prescribed hub work and a compatible master-cylinder arrangement. Calipers, brake rotors, master cylinders, valves, fittings and brake lines are all part of Wilwood Engineering’s range of disc brake systems and components. The Camarillo, California company was founded in 1977 by Bill Wood and designs and manufactures these products for motorsport, street-performance and specialized applications. Compatibility with the complete brake system determines the appropriate component choice.

Fitment & Compatibility
Select this 12.88-inch Superlite conversion by the installed six-lug front hub and the exact GM 4x4 listing. The supported group spans specific 1971–1991 K-series pickups/Suburbans, Blazer/K5 Blazer and Jimmy versions, with no blanket coverage across the entire date range. Verify rotor and caliper clearance using the installation drawing.
DS1671 requires hub stud-hole preparation. Hydraulic planning is also essential: Wilwood specifies a recommended 15/16-inch master cylinder when retaining the factory pedal and vacuum booster, rather than the 1.12-inch OE bore that produces very high pedal effort. Where rear drums remain, follow the recommendation for a 10-pound residual valve plus a proportioning valve in their circuit. Hoses are not supplied.
