Parts List
General Information and Disassembly Instructions
Page 3
Installation of this kit should ONLY be performed by persons experienced in the
installation and proper operation of disc brake systems. Before installation begins,
please read the complete procedure thoroughly to familiarize yourself with the
process and double check the following items to ensure a trouble-free installation.
•Make sure this is the correct kit to match the exact make and model year of the
vehicle’s spindle (i.e., brackets for a 1990 Camaro spindle will not fit a 1997 Camaro
spindle). On some models of disc brake spindles there are “ears” where the OEM
calipers were mounted and these “ears” interfere with the assembly of the Wilwood
disc brake kit. See Figure 2 for spindle modification instructions.
•Verify the hat stud pattern in this kit matches the stud pattern of the vehicle’s wheels.
•Inspect the package contents against the parts list to ensure that all components and
hardware are included.
Disassembly / Spindle Modifications
•Disassemble the original equipment front brakes:
Raise the front wheels off the ground and support the front suspension according to the vehicle manufacturer’s instructions.
Remove the front wheels. Unbolt the existing OEM caliper and rotor but do not totally unhook the caliper at this time. Using wire, hang
the caliper out of the way.
Disconnect sway bar from lower a-arm. Disconnect ABS sensor from rear of spindle. Place a hydraulic jack under a-arm and apply
minimal tension for support. Remove cotter pin and loosen nuts on upper and lower knuckle ball joints. Using a ball joint separator
(pickle fork), insert between ball joint and knuckle to pull apart ball joint from knuckle. Loosen hydraulic jack support under a-arm to
remove knuckle from between upper and lower a-arm. Remove four bolts holding the hub to knuckle and remove hub from knuckle.
Thoroughly clean the knuckles before machine work.
•The following knuckle modifications should be performed by a qualified machinist. Refer to Figure 2. Only one view of the steering
arm/knuckle is shown, but the modifications need to be performed on both sides.
•With the knuckle positioned in its correct upright position you must remove the protrusion indicated by arrow “A”. Also, cut off
the OEM mounting ears indicated by arrow “B” and remove the bottom OEM caliper mounting ear shown with arrow “C”. Remove all
sharp corners and burrs with a file or grinder.
