Wilwood 140-13653 Details

Wilwood's Classic Series front disc brake kits for 1960 to 1968 Ford & Mercury full size offer disc brake upgrade solutions for OEM Drum spindles. These kits feature the FDL-M four piston forged aluminum caliper and 11.30" diameter x 0.94" thick one-piece rotors. The FDL-M caliper is a modified version of the time-tested Forged Dynalite caliper, and provides the greatest amount of wheel clearance of any four piston caliper in its size class. The OEM style one-piece cast iron rotors with integrated hubs simplify installation while providing superb dimensional stability and wear resistance. These versatile kits are easily optioned to suit the braking requirements and style preferences for a daily driver or the most discriminating show enthusiast. Intended vehicle applications require no modifications for installation, and clear most 14" OEM wheels. Classic Series FDL-M kits can be used with either manual or power boost master cylinders, and come complete with calipers, rotors, brackets, hardware and detailed installation instructions.

Specs

Our rotors are machined and fully e-coated, just like the rotor hats. This is a protectant coating the prohibits surface rust from forming on the exposed surfaces. Once the parts are installed and being bedded in, the brake pad friction and caliper pressure will remove the coating at the spot the brake pads touch. This will expose the silver iron material underneath.

Overall Assessment

Customers frequently appreciate the product's easy installation, perfect fit, and quality on various car models, noting that this disk brake kit is an ideal upgrade from drum brakes. The product is frequently praised for its solid engineering and well-made parts, with users noting a significant improvement in their cars' stopping power and overall safety after installation - features they didn't find in competing products. However, potential purchasers should note that the stock brake lines won't work. It was also found that in some cases the calipers may interfere with 14 inch rims. It's highly recommended by multiple reviewers.
