Bracket Kit Disc/Drum Big Ford New Style 2.5in

The Wilwood Bracket Kit Disc/Drum Big Ford New Style 2.5-inch is a rear brake caliper bracket assembly specifically designed for certain Big Ford applications that require a disc-to-drum conversion. This kit is ideal for builders looking to enhance the braking performance of classic or vintage Big Ford vehicles, whether for street/strip machines or towing vehicles.

Constructed from lightweight black anodized aluminum, this bracket kit is engineered to mount Wilwood FDL-LP calipers to drum-equipped Big Ford axles. The 2.5-inch mounting dimension ensures proper alignment of the calipers with the rotors, allowing for improved stopping power and modulation compared to stock drum setups. The design also maintains factory-level packaging without requiring modifications to the frame or suspension.

This kit is particularly beneficial for those transitioning to modern braking technology, as it preserves the integrity of the rear axle housing while utilizing contemporary caliper designs. Proper engineering of the caliper bracket prevents deflection, enhancing pedal feel and reducing brake fade during heavy use. It is an excellent choice for restorations where original drum brakes no longer meet service demands.
