{"product_id":"wilwood-140-9217-r","title":"Wilwood Rear 2.36-Offset Old Big Ford Brake Kit, Red Superlites with 12.88-Inch GT Rotors \u0026 Internal Parking Brake","description":"\u003cp\u003eRed Superlite calipers are combined with GT-slotted rotors and internal parking-brake backing plates in this old-style Big Ford kit. The specified 2.36-inch axle offset sets rotor alignment, while the hat register must match the axle or its supplied adapter. From its base in Camarillo, California, Wilwood Engineering designs and manufactures disc brake systems for motorsport, street-performance and specialized applications. Founded by Bill Wood in 1977, the company also produces the individual calipers, brake rotors, master cylinders, valves, fittings and brake lines used in these installations. Selection should account for how each component works within the complete brake system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer part number: 140-9217-R\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake rotors: 12.88 x 1.10 inches; Spec-37 Iron; GT Slotted; 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: Black Electro Coat; rotors are not supplied burnished\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRotor\/hat wheel-stud clearance pattern(s): 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; the existing hub\/axle pattern is retained\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHat\/rotor stud-hole clearance: 0.520 in; 13.21 mm; this is not a wheel-stud thread designation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRequired axle offset: 2.36 inches; measure from the axle flange to the housing flange as shown in the instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParking brake: internal drum\/shoe assemblies included; cable, clevis and control hardware are separate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHydraulic hoses: not included; match the separate lines and fittings to the application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKit includes calipers, rotors and mounting hardware; replacement hubs and spindles are not included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot included: master cylinder and brake booster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWheel clearance: 17-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 Narrow Superlite 4R; Red Powder Coat; radial mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment \u0026amp; Compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA slotted rotor and red caliper do not change the old-style Big Ford geometry: this kit requires 2.36-inch offset. Compare the bearing-retainer stack and housing-end mounting holes with DS527. The original model entry is only a starting point for a converted rear axle. Verify the 6.61-inch flange\/chamfer clearance and center the hat at 3.06 inches, or 2.80 inches using the included adapter. Parking backing plates are supplied; the hydraulic hoses and cable operating connections are selected separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCheck the full application table below, including its model-year splits and brake-configuration requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdjust and test the mechanical parking brake as directed.
