Product details
Ford's D601 front brake package spans passenger cars and the Windstar, but the application splits are not identical. This ProMatrix pad set uses the 0.69-inch specification and the D601 retaining shape for the listed original-style calipers. The manufacturer is Wilwood Engineering, established by Bill Wood in 1977 and based in Camarillo, California. Wilwood designs and manufactures disc brake systems for motorsport, street-performance and specialized applications, supplying calipers, brake rotors, master cylinders, valves, fittings and brake lines whose selection must suit the complete brake system.
