Wilwood Forged Dynalite Big Brake FDLI Front Kit,12.19", Drilled for 1970-78 Camaro

The Wilwood Forged Dynalite Big Brake FDL Front Kit (part #140-8582-D) is designed to bring modern, stronger stopping power to 1970-78 Camaro factory disc spindles. The kit uses 12.19" diameter vented rotors and forged billet aluminium callipers for better heat management and more consistent braking, especially after the wheel, tyre, and suspension upgrades. Technical improvements include high-performance Wilwood brake pads for reliable pedal response and forged steel hubs that offer dual bolt patterns for added versatility. This setup is built for classic vehicles without ABS and offers a direct technical upgrade over traditional braking systems.

INSTALLATION DETAILS

This kit requires more work than standard brake jobs. You will need to drill, tap, and remove small sections from the steering arm and spindle for calliper clearance. The included hardware and detailed instructions guide the process, but a professional installer or machine shop is recommended. OEM brake hoses will not fit these callipers, so plan to install steel braided lines and the required fittings (sold separately). All new wheel studs, bearings, seals, and other hardware are included. After assembly, use the recommended torque specs, bleed the brakes, bed the pads and rotors, and verify wheel clearance before regular use.

FACTORY FIT NOTES

- Requires permanent spindle and steering arm modifications for installation
- Wheels must fully seat on the hub face; use Wilwood spacers or shields if necessary for proper wheel fitment
