Thread: Need a hearst airheart brake specialist if there is one? Ordering rotors

Tweet

Well unfortunatly the pads are about doomed and I need something to get me by for just this season, i'll add the wilwoods to the winter list. The rotors arent horrible I was just going to get them b/c they help with the look. If im going to go wilwood I wont bother ordering the rotors. However my other car may be selling next week and I will possibly just order the setup then.

So now on this note what all is involved besides the changing of the caliper and rotor now? The caliper currently floats and the rotor is bolted to the wheel, will I be able to use the same brackets and master cylinder etc...

First of all, it sounds like you have the spindle mount wire wheels. I just went through the Wilwood catalog - it appears that they no longer offer the kit that I had. Even Speedway had that kit for a while, but no longer have it since they bought Total Performance. I guess at this point, and what I would do would be to choose the Wilwood single piston caliper(page 56 of their parts catalog http://www.wilwood.com/Pdf/Catalogs/TechCatalog.pdf ) along with the 10" diameter .380 thick Airheart rotor then make up a bracket as Wilwood gives you enough information to do that chore, using what you have as a guide.

Is this the front end of yours(sorry about the quality - it's from a scanned print picture)?
