Description
The D8-6 calipers serve as a direct bolt-on replacement for the original equipment calipers found in models from 1965-82. Engineered with forged billet aluminum bodies, these calipers are designed to combat common issues such as rust, bore pitting, and seal failures that are prevalent in factory designs.
Featuring stainless steel pistons and high-temperature seals, the calipers ensure consistent performance while significantly reducing maintenance needs. The six-piston design offers enhanced pad clamping power, delivering superior braking efficiency under a variety of conditions. Additionally, the lightweight construction contributes to overall vehicle performance and handling.
These calipers are easy to install as they mount in the stock location over original rotors and utilize the standard D8 brake pads. They are compatible with most '67 and newer production wheels, though some earlier models may require a wheel spacer for proper fitment. The assembly includes DOT compliant stainless braided brake lines, promoting reliable fluid transfer and durability.
