The included hubs and bearings support 12.19-inch vented rotors, while the four-piston Dynalite calipers mount on application-specific brackets. 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer part number: 140-8583-R\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake rotors: 12.19 x 0.81 inches; Iron; Plain Face; vented\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded pad compound: BP-10; pistons: stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaliper body: Forged aluminum; hydraulic inlet: 1\/8-27 NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRotor surface finish: Plain; rotors are not supplied burnished\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied hub wheel pattern(s): 5 x 4.5 in; 5 x 114.3 mm; 5 x 4.75 in; 5 x 120.65 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied wheel studs: 1\/2-20 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHydraulic hoses: not included; match the separate lines and fittings to the application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded hub package: hubs, bearings, seals, adapters and mounting hardware; original spindles are retained\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot included: master cylinder and brake booster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWheel clearance: 15-inch wheels may fit; check the complete manufacturer caliper\/rotor template\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuantity: sold as one axle kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eService calipers: 4-piston Forged Dynalite Internal; Red Powder Coat; lug mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment \u0026amp; Compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe red plain-rotor option requires the documented early Ford drum-brake spindle and correct bearing dimensions. Verify the individual 1937–1948 passenger-car, delivery or pickup entry; the long application span does not imply that every Ford axle shares this arrangement. Use DS481 to check hub placement and bracket alignment, and select compatible front lines separately. Wilwood lists the 18-inch 220-8307 hose option, subject to suitable routing. Inspect wheel seating carefully on the supplied hubs before the vehicle is put into service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe wheel contact surface must seat fully on the hub. If it overhangs the hub face, Wilwood requires the separate 6.60-inch-diameter x 0.20-inch steel spacer 300-11961. For stamped-steel wheels that do not overhang, Wilwood recommends the 6.15-inch x 0.09-inch hub shield 300-10716.
