Wilwood Rear Black 12.88-Inch SRP Conversion for Small Ford Axle Ends with 2.66-Inch Offset

Black Superlite calipers and SRP rotors provide the hydraulic braking components for this Small Ford conversion. The kit's 2.66-inch offset requirement and bearing-retainer arrangement must match the installed rear housing before the parking assemblies are fitted. Wilwood Engineering’s disc brake systems and components serve motorsport, street-performance and specialized applications. Bill Wood founded the company in 1977; it is based in Camarillo, California. Wilwood designs and manufactures brake rotors and calipers as well as master cylinders, valves, brake lines and fittings. Selecting compatible components is essential to the complete system.

Fitment & Compatibility

The drilled/slotted Small Ford package requires the housing-end pattern and bearing arrangement in DS526, together with 2.66 inches of axle offset. Inspect the bearing-retainer stack before assembling the parking backing plates. The 6.61-inch maximum axle flange needs the drawing's chamfer, and rotor centering uses either the 3.06-inch hat bore or supplied 2.80-inch adapter. Choose separate hydraulic plumbing and suitable parking-cable hardware. The Town Car entry is conditional on matching installed hardware, not an assurance of stock fitment.

Check the full application table below, including its model-year splits and brake-configuration requirements.

Adjust and test the mechanical parking brake as directed. Cable routing, tension and shoe adjustment affect its holding ability; do not rely on an untested parking brake alone to secure the vehicle on a slope.
