Wilwood Forged Dynalite Front Drag Brake Kit (Hat) - Manual (Page 2)

Spindle Modifications
•These modifications should be performed by a qualified
machinist. Refer to Figure 1, right. Only one view of the
spindle is shown, but the modifications need to be performed
on both spindles.
•Some material must be removed from the caliper mounting
lugs on the OE spindle until .19” (4,8mm) remains between
a tangent on the outer edge of the bolt hole and the outer
edge of the lug. After removal, be sure the area is free of
sharp edges or burrs. With the caliper and mount bracket in
place, check to be sure there is no interference between the
mounting lugs on the spindle and the caliper.

Important Notice - Read This First
Before any tear-down or disassembly begins, review the following information:
• Review the wheel clearance diagram (figure 2) to verify that there is adequate clearance with the wheels you
will be using with the installation.
• Before any tear-down or disassembly begins, modifications are required to the stock spindle. This includes
removing some material from the stock spindle caliper mounting area that will interfere with the assembly of
the Wilwood disc brake kit. It is recommended that these modifications be performed by a qualified machine
shop. Please refer to the modification procedure and Figure 2 below.
• Front brake kits do not include flex lines. OEM brake lines will not adapt to Wilwood calipers. Check the
assembly instructions, or associated components section for brake line recommendations before assembly.
In addition, Wilwood offers an extensive listing of brake lines and fittings on our web site:

Photographic Tip
Important and highly recommended: Take photos of brake system before disassembly and during the disassembly process. In the
event, trouble-shooting photos can be life savers. Many vehicles have undocumented variations, photos will make it much simpler for
Wilwood to assist you if you have a problem.
