Product details
GT slotted rotors and red powder-coated calipers define this Ford 8.8 rear brake assembly. Its four-piston service calipers use 1.12-inch bores, while the supplied internal parking mechanism requires its own correctly selected cable connection. Founded by Bill Wood in 1977 and based in Camarillo, California, Wilwood Engineering designs and manufactures disc brake systems for motorsport, street-performance and specialized applications. Its component range includes calipers, brake rotors, master cylinders, valves, fittings and brake lines. Every component must suit the complete brake system in which it operates.

Fitment & Compatibility
For five-lug Ford 8.8 rear axles with the 2.50-inch offset and housing flange shown in DS-533. Measure the installed axle rather than selecting from the rear-end name alone; aftermarket housings may carry different ends. Confirm the bearing, 2.80-inch center register, stud clearance and available space around the shocks. The multi-pattern hats accommodate compatible existing axle studs; they do not change the axle wheel pattern. Supply suitable hydraulic hoses and parking cables separately; Wilwood lists universal cable kit 330-9371. Nominal minimum wheel diameter: 17 in; 431.8 mm. Compare the actual wheel barrel and spokes with the linked clearance drawing; diameter alone does not establish fit.
