Wilwood Front ProMatrix D459 Pads for C3500 (1994–1998), K3500 (1990–1998), K3500 Classic (1999) and Ram 2500 HD (1994–1999)

The D459 set has different inner and outer pad configurations for the listed heavy-truck front brakes. The drawing supplies separate thicknesses, so the page's single nominal value should not be treated as the thickness of every pad in the box. Founded by Bill Wood in 1977, Wilwood Engineering is based in Camarillo, California, where it designs and manufactures disc brake systems and components. Its calipers, brake rotors, master cylinders, valves, fittings and brake lines serve motorsport, street-performance and specialized applications, with each component selected to suit the complete brake system.
