Product details

The red SRP version uses the 2.81-inch-offset fixed-bearing bracket arrangement. For Chevrolet 12-bolt Special, 3.15-inch fixed bearing, Wilwood specifies red powder-coated 4-piston calipers and 12.19-inch SRP drilled-and-slotted rotors in this rear package. Bill Wood founded Wilwood Engineering in 1977. From Camarillo, California, the company designs and manufactures disc brake systems and components including calipers, brake rotors, master cylinders, valves, fittings and brake lines for motorsport, street-performance and specialized applications. This kit should be matched to the hydraulic and mechanical requirements of the complete vehicle.

Package and installation requirements

  • The fixed-bearing Special-end assembly includes internal parking shoes beneath the one-piece rear drum/rotors. Parking operation remains separate from the four-piston hydraulic service calipers.
  • Hydraulic flexlines and parking cables must be purchased independently. Check whether the universal 330-9371 cable arrangement needs alterations to connect to the vehicle.

Fitment & Compatibility

This Chevrolet 12-bolt Special package is built around a 3.15-inch fixed axle bearing and a 2.81-inch axle offset. It is distinct from Wilwood’s OE C-clip-end conversion. Verify the fixed-bearing housing-end dimensions in DS445 before interpreting any of the vehicle applications below. A modified Camaro, Chevelle or other listed GM car may have several possible rear ends, regardless of its front spindle setup. In this package the rear rotor also contains the drum for the internal parking shoes, giving the mechanical parking system its own friction surface. Complete the installation plan with cable adaptation, hydraulic lines and a wheel-template check. If the axle bearing or retaining hardware cannot be identified, obtain that information before selecting the kit.

Review the fitment table and numbered notes below together; a matching model name alone does not establish the installation.
