Wilwood Forged Dynalite Front Drag Brake Kit - Manual (Page 2)

Important Notice - Disc Brake Applications Only
Caliper Mounting Bracket - Mounting Hole Designations
Dual Kit Configurations
Before any tear-down or disassembly begins, some modifications are required to the stock steering
arm/spindle. This entails drilling out and re-tapping the three holes in the spindle that are utilized to mount
the Wilwood caliper mounting bracket. It is recommended that these modifications be performed by a
qualified machine shop. Please keep in mind that this may require a substantial amount of time (more than a
day). Therefore, the vehicle may be inoperable for longer than anticipated.
This kit has been designed for use with both the disc brake or the drum brake configuration of vehicle. The
only difference is in how the Wilwood caliper mounting bracket is installed. The same bracket is used for both
configurations; the disc brake version utilizes three mounting holes while the drum brake application uses
four mounting holes (see Figure 1). For your convenience we have supplied bolt kits for both applications
(see parts list and Figure 2 as necessary, item(s) 2A and 2B). Use the bolt kit that is applicable to your vehicle
and disregard the other one.

Photographic Tip
We suggest you take digital photos of the brake system setup before and during the disassembly procedure. This will aid in the event
that something is not compatible with the new brake components and be a valuable tool to assist in the trouble-shooting process.
