Wilwood D154 Front Caliper Kit - Red 1.62-inch Piston, For GM Vehicles

Wilwood's D154 Front Caliper Kit is a direct bolt-on 1 or 2 piston, lightweight, high-strength, extreme duty alternative to the OE cast iron "Metric" calipers that were used on a wide range of factory disc brake equipped mid size GM cars and small trucks beginning in 1978. Use of this caliper can still be found on some GM models as late as the year 2002. Forged billet aluminum bodies, stainless steel pistons, and competition style high-temperature seals put an end to the rust, bore pitting, and seal failures that plague the OE caliper design. D154 calipers provide low-maintenance performance and a huge weight savings with high temperature reliability for the street and track. D154 calipers mount in the stock location over stock rotors; use the original style OE D154 brake pads and an OE M10-1.5 banjo bolt brake line mounting. D154 Calipers can be used with most wheels that clear the OE calipers. The front calipers with 2.50” piston provide 4.90 square inches of piston area per caliper, in order to maintain the original front to rear brake bias and use of the OE master cylinder. The D154 is also available in a two piston version with 1.62 pistons, offering 4.12 square inches of area. Kits contain Wilwood’s hardened slide pins and BP-10 high friction pads. Matching rear calipers are also available for custom installations. Custom stainless steel brake lines are also available.

The Wilwood D154 Front Caliper Kit offers a high-performance, lightweight upgrade for your GM vehicle's disc brake system. Designed as a direct bolt-on replacement, this kit features a 1.62-inch piston size that provides 4.12 square inches of piston area, maintaining the original front to rear brake bias and compatibility with stock master cylinders. The calipers are constructed with forged billet aluminum bodies and stainless steel pistons, ensuring durability and resistance to rust, bore pitting, and seal failures common with OEM cast iron calipers. This design results in low-maintenance performance and significant weight savings, making it suitable for both street driving and track use. The kit mounts in the stock location over existing rotors, utilizing the original style OE D154 brake pads and OE M10-1.5 banjo bolt brake line fittings. Compatibility with most wheels that clear stock calipers makes installation straightforward. Equipped with competition-grade high-temperature seals and BP-10 high friction pads, these calipers deliver reliable stopping power under demanding conditions. The inclusion of hardened slide pins ensures smooth operation and longevity. This upgrade not only enhances braking performance but also reduces unsprung weight, improving handling and ride quality. Custom stainless steel brake lines and matching rear calipers are available for comprehensive brake system upgrades, catering to enthusiasts seeking tailored performance solutions. The Wilwood D154 front caliper kit is an excellent choice for those looking to improve braking response, reliability, and weight reduction while preserving OEM fitment and compatibility.
