Wilwood Rear Drag Kit Olds/Pont DPL .68 STUD

The .68-inch diameter wheel studs on this Wilwood rear drag brake kit are a key detail for serious drag racers. This kit is built around a Dynamic mount caliper and an 11.25-inch rotor, specifically designed for applications where rapid acceleration and consistent stopping power are critical. The rotor is drilled for SA (Stud/Bolt) pattern hubs, and the caliper features a Dynamic mount for a solid connection. This setup is intended to provide a reliable braking solution for drag racing vehicles, helping you achieve optimal performance off the line and during the shutdown sequence.

Wilwood has engineered this kit with the demands of drag racing in mind. The rotor's size and drilling pattern are chosen to work with specific hub configurations common in performance applications. The caliper's Dynamic mount design ensures it stays securely in place under the high stresses of launching and braking, which is crucial for maintaining control. While this kit focuses on drag strip performance, it's important to remember that it's part of a larger braking system. Ensure all other components are in good working order to complement the performance of these rear brakes.

When installing this rear drag brake kit, pay close attention to the rotor's offset and the caliper mounting specifications provided by Wilwood. Proper installation is key to achieving the intended performance and ensuring safety on the track. This kit is designed to be a direct upgrade for specific Oldsmobile and Pontiac rear axle setups, but always verify compatibility with your exact vehicle configuration before purchase. Consult Wilwood's installation guide for detailed instructions and any specific hardware requirements.
