Wilwood Ford Explorer 8.8in Rear Axle Dynalite Disc Brake Kit 12.19in Rotor -Red Caliper

This Wilwood Dynalite rear disc brake kit is specifically designed for Ford Explorer models equipped with the 8.8-inch rear axle. It upgrades your rear braking system with a 12.19-inch rotor and a red-finished Dynalite caliper, offering a significant improvement over stock drum or smaller disc brakes. If you're looking to enhance your vehicle's stopping power, especially for modified trucks or those used for towing or performance driving, this kit is a solid choice.

The kit features a 12.19-inch diameter, 0.81-inch thick vented rotor, providing more surface area and better heat dissipation than smaller factory rotors. This helps prevent brake fade during repeated stops. The Dynalite calipers are a popular choice for their compact size and robust construction, allowing them to fit within many common wheel sizes while offering strong clamping force. The red finish on the calipers adds a noticeable visual upgrade to your rear axle.

Installation involves replacing your existing rear drum or disc brake setup. This kit is designed as a direct bolt-on for the Ford 8.8-inch axle, meaning no welding or permanent modifications are typically required, though you will need to ensure your axle housing is compatible with the caliper mounting brackets. It's recommended to consult the included manufacturer instructions for detailed installation steps and hardware specifications. Upgrading your rear brakes with this Wilwood kit will contribute to a more balanced and effective braking system overall.
