Wilwood D8-4 Rear Caliper Kit for Chevrolet Corvette C2/C3 (1965-1982) – Black Finish

Description

Upgrade your Chevrolet Corvette with the Wilwood D8-4 rear caliper kit, designed for models from 1965 to 1982. Featuring Type III hard anodized forged billet aluminum bodies, these calipers deliver exceptional durability and resistance to rust, bore pitting, and seal failures that are common with original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts. Stainless steel pistons and high-temperature seals ensure reliable performance in demanding driving conditions, reducing maintenance and extending caliper lifespan.
These calipers provide a significant weight savings, high-temperature reliability, and six-piston pad clamping power for enhanced braking performance. They mount in the stock location over the existing rotors and are compatible with the original style D8 brake pads. The calipers fit snugly inside most ’67 or newer production wheels, though some wheels such as the 1965-66 OE “JK” steel wheels and certain aftermarket alloy wheels may require a 3/16” or wider wheel spacer for adequate clearance. The kit includes DOT-compliant stainless braided brake lines and high-friction Promatrix brake pads for immediate installation and optimal braking efficiency.
Designed specifically for the Chevrolet Corvette models listed, these calipers ensure a direct bolt-on upgrade that enhances safety and performance without the need for extensive modifications. Whether restoring a classic or upgrading for better braking capacity, the Wilwood D8-4 calipers offer a high-performance solution with a sleek black finish that complements your vehicle’s aesthetics.
