This is a SERIOUS brake upgrade!!! 16" rotors!!! Yes, rotors that are as big as alot of the stock GM truck wheels!!! These things are insane!!!! But with alot of trucks driving around with 22, 24 and even up to 28" wheels, insane sizes requires insane stopping power! 20" wheels are the minumum required to apply for this upgrade.

 

Kit Features:

Big Brake Truck Front Hat Kits are engineered for use in conjunction with OE front hubs on a variety of competition, show, custom, and sport driving applications. Forged TC 6 piston calipers, Wilwood brake pads, machined aluminum hats, and 16" GT directional vane rotors exemplify award winning style and provide the ultimate in Big Brake Truck stopping power. Born from Wilwood's 25 year tradition of building championship brake systems, TC Big Brake kits are the perfect compliment to wheel, tire, and suspension equipment upgrades.

Forged Billet TC 6 Piston Calipers · Calipers Available in Black or Red:

Superior strength forged billet calipers resist deflection under load without adding unnecessary weight. Six stainless steel pistons generate high clamping force and balanced pad loading while resisting corrosion and reducing heat transfer from the pads. Standard kits include black calipers with the Wilwood signature. Red calipers available on custom orders.

 

16” Staggered Vane Directional Rotors

Staggered direction vane rotors offer the highest cooling efficiency by maximizing the surface area and air circulation between the rotor faces. SRP series rotors are drilled and slotted, and then finished in a silver zinc wash to enhance pad performance and give that high tech, corrosion resistant look inside the wheels. GT series rotors are face slotted to enhance pad performance and carry the maximum rotor mass for thermal stability in high temperature or competition applications.

 

Forged Aluminum Rotor Hats

High strength forged aluminum hats are rib reinforced to carry extreme loads and eliminate unnecessary, power robbing rotational weight. Black anodizing prevents oxidation while adding to the custom look inside the wheel.

 

Wilwood Brake Pads

Advanced formula high friction compounds have quick response, big stopping power, and extended fade resistance over OE compound pads. Low dust, low noise formulas are easy on the driver and the wheels.

 

Mount Brackets and Hadware

Race proven radial caliper mount system with brackets and premium grade studs, nuts, bolts, washers, and alignment shims assure an accurate and secure installation.

 

Plumbing

Fittings and hoses for most kits must be ordered separately. Hose kit part numbers can be found next to each kit in the ordering information.

 

My Sierra HD rides on 22s and I am really considering this upgrade. I'll just need to go with a set of 20s to run winter tires when the snow starts to flew.

 

We have some awesome discounts available for these packages. Our regular retail is usually in the $2700. range. Just give us a call or e-mail to receive a quite. Part numbers can been seen in the Truck Brake Section of our website.

 

Have a good day!

Tom
