Installation

Wilwood® - Forged Narrow Superlite® Driver Side Brake Caliper Installation Instructions

The key to the superior performance of the Forged Narrow Superlite comes from the extremely durable and efficient body design. Starting at 4.9 pounds it is the product of computer generated solid modeling and FEA stress analysis technology. The most noteworthy feature of this new caliper design is the forging. Each body is stress-flow forged from premium grade aluminum alloy billets. Stress-flow forging re-aligns the metal's internal grain structure to flow within the contour of the caliper body. This process eliminates the stresses and interruptions to the internal grain structure that occur when machining a straight block billet. Simply stated, there is no better way to build a stronger aluminum caliper body.

A unique piston differential bore configuration provides balanced loading for even pad wear in sustained high heat environments. The standard Forged Narrow Superlite calipers feature stainless steel pistons. Stainless is used for its slow heat transfer properties and high resistance to corrosion.
