Product details

A lightweight steel drag rotor and Type III anodized caliper distinguish this rear package from Wilwood street brake conversions. This Forged Dynalite rear drag brake kit combines Type III anodized 4-piston calipers and 11.44-inch drilled rotors. Founded in 1977 by Bill Wood and based in Camarillo, California, Wilwood Engineering designs and manufactures disc brake systems for motorsport, street-performance and specialized applications. Its range includes calipers, brake rotors, master cylinders, valves, fittings and brake lines, selected to work together as a complete brake system.

Technical Details

  • Manufacturer part number: 140-5771-BD.
  • Rotor dimensions: 11.44 in; 290.58 mm diameter x 0.35 in; 8.89 mm thick.
  • Rotor construction: Steel; solid; Drilled friction surface.
  • Calipers: 4 pistons; forged aluminum; stainless steel pistons.
  • Caliper attachment: lug mount; 1/8-27 NPT hydraulic inlet.
  • Caliper finish: Type III anodized.
  • Rotor/hat wheel-stud clearance patterns: 5 X 4.5 in; 5 X 114.3 mm; 5 X 4.75 in; 5 X 120.65 mm; 5 X 5 in; 5 X 127 mm.
  • Rotor/hat stud-hole clearance diameters: 0.520 in; 13.21 mm. These are hole sizes, not wheel-stud thread specifications.
  • The rotor/hat drilling does not change the vehicle hub or axle wheel bolt pattern.
  • Housing/flange arrangement: 12 Bolt Special.
  • Axle offset: confirm with Wilwood; the current product page specifies 2.91 inches and the installation cover specifies 2.81 inches.
  • Wheel-size guide: 15 in; 381 mm minimum nominal diameter; verify actual template clearance.
  • Sold as one kit. Mounting hardware is included. Hubs are not included.
  • Brake pads are included; use the compound and installation instructions specified for this rotor package.
  • Spindles, master cylinder, brake booster and hydraulic brake lines are not included.

Fitment & Compatibility

This rear drag package uses the Chevrolet 12-bolt Special housing end with a 3.15-inch fixed bearing. Its solid steel rotor is 11.44 inches in diameter and 0.35 inch thick, unlike the thicker vented iron rotors in street-oriented packages. Wilwood limits this kit to cars equipped with four-wheel disc brakes. Type III anodizing is the specified caliper finish; the suffix should not be interpreted as black powder coating. Axle selection remains unresolved until measurements are confirmed: the live product listing gives 2.91 inches, whereas the DS454 cover identifies 2.81 inches. Contact Wilwood with the measured housing-end details before choosing this kit. The broad modified-GM application rows do not settle that dimensional conflict or identify the rear axle actually installed.

Use the wheel-clearance drawing in the installation instructions before purchase. The catalog minimum diameter is a guide; barrel shape, spoke clearance and wheel offset still determine fit.

The application table below identifies the model-year and factory-equipment combinations. Match the entire row, including its numbered notes.

Package and installation requirements

  • Drag-racing use; four-wheel disc brake applications only.
  • No parking-brake assembly is included.
  • Axle offset remains unconfirmed: the current page says 2.91 inches and DS454 says 2.81 inches.
