Wilwood’s new forged billet D154 replacement caliper for 1968–present GM vehicles is a big step up for a small piece of dough.


 Wilwood has just introduced their new D154 direct bolt-on replacement caliper for most 1978 – present GM muscle cars and passenger vehicles that were originally equipped with iron single-piston D154 pad type calipers. The calipers are specifically designed to mount in the stock location with stock size rotors using regular OEM-type replacement pads and fitment anywhere the OEM calipers were used.

The D154 caliper employs the latest refinements in modern caliper design and manufacturing including a forged aluminum body, stainless steel pistons for their slow heat transfer properties and high corrosion resistance, and high-temp seals for controlled piston retraction, which improves driver feel. The caliper comes in a single-piston 2.50-inch diameter (prices start around $374.99 at Summit Racing) as well as two-piston configurations (1.62/1.62-inch and 1.12/1.12-inch) for vehicles that have been converted to four-wheel discs. Both caliper configurations have the same muscular exterior design, giving them that big-brake multi-piston look. Calipers are available in black or red powder coat which compliments wheel, tire, and rotor upgrades. Save weight and gain reliability with the new D154 calipers from Wilwood!
