The D8-6 front caliper kit is a direct bolt-on replacement for the factory Corvette calipers, built with Type III hard anodized forged billet aluminum bodies, stainless steel pistons, and high-temperature seals that put an end to the rust, bore pitting, and seal failures common to the original design. Six-piston clamping delivers stronger, more consistent pad application along with a significant weight savings over the cast OE calipers. The calipers mount in the stock location over the factory rotors and use the original style D8 brake pad. Each kit includes a pair of calipers, DOT compliant stainless braided brake lines, and high friction Promatrix brake pads.
