Product details
Wilwood's GM 2500 front hat uses a 12 x 10.75-inch rotor circle. Check the 1.550-inch offset, 4.64-inch register and eight-hole hub flange. Bill Wood’s 1977 founding of Wilwood Engineering began a disc brake design and manufacturing business based in Camarillo, California. The range includes master cylinders, calipers, rotors, brake lines, valves and fittings for motorsport, street-performance and specialized vehicles. Component selection must consider the complete braking arrangement.

Fitment & Compatibility
Match this component to the documented GM 2500 truck brake conversions. Confirm the mounting stack, center location and rotor hardware; vehicle model alone does not establish compatibility with a modified brake system. Select the rotor and attachment hardware separately for the documented assembly. Follow the installation drawing for engagement and clearance at every mounting point.
