Wilwood's D154 forged billet aluminum caliper is a direct bolt-on, lightweight, high-strength, extreme duty alternative to the OE cast iron 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 2002. The wide spread and affordable availability of D154 calipers and brake pad compounds also made it a popular choice in a number of restricted class competition categories and drum to disc conversions on all types of hot rods and street machines.

D52 Dual Piston Caliper

2" Diameter Pistons

1.28" Rotor Width

Wilwood's D52 caliper is a direct bolt-on 2 piston replacement for the factory original single calipers on many 1968-96 GM Passenger Vehicles and Trucks. Forged billet aluminum bodies, stainless steel pistons, and competition style high-temperature seals put and end to the rust, bore pitting, and seal failures that plague the OE caliper design. D52 brake calipers provide low-maintenance performance and a huge weight savings with high temperature reliability for the street and track.

 

D52 performance brake calipers mount in the stock location over stock rotors, use the original style OE D52 brake pads and an OE banjo bolt brake line. mounting. Calipers can be used with most wheels that clear the OE calipers. The Rear calipers with 1.25" piston provide 2.46 cubic inches of piston area per caliper, to maintain the original front to rear brake bias and use of the OE master cylinder.
