Balance Bar Assembly Grooved Rod w/Bearing

The Balance Bar Assembly Grooved Rod with Bearing (WIL330-12750) is a precision-engineered suspension component designed for high-performance braking systems and custom automotive applications. Built by Wilwood, a leader in performance brake technology, this balance bar assembly serves as a critical load-distribution element in vehicles requiring advanced brake modulation and stability control. Whether you're upgrading a track car, performance street build, or restoring a classic with modern stopping power, this grooved rod assembly ensures consistent brake bias and pedal feel across diverse driving conditions.

This balance bar assembly features a grooved rod design that minimizes friction and wear while distributing braking force evenly between front and rear circuits. The integrated bearing allows smooth articulation of the balance bar, preventing binding and ensuring responsive brake modulation without flat spots or inconsistent pedal travel. At just 0.23 lbs and measuring 3.7 x 1.1 x 5.95 inches, the compact design fits seamlessly into tight engine bays while maintaining the structural integrity required for sustained high-performance braking. The grooved surface treatment reduces adhesive wear patterns common in older balance bar designs, extending component lifespan under repeated hard braking cycles.

Mechanics and enthusiasts restoring or upgrading dual-circuit brake systems will find this Wilwood balance bar assembly essential for vehicles requiring proportional front-to-rear brake force adjustment. It's particularly valuable in street rods, vintage muscle cars, and late-model performance vehicles where OEM balance bars lack the precision or durability needed for spirited driving. Installation requires proper alignment with existing brake proportioning valves and master cylinders; consult your vehicle's brake system schematic or Wilwood's technical guides for correct fitment. This component pairs seamlessly with Wilwood master cylinders, proportioning valves, and brake kits for a complete, tuned braking system.
