Wilwood 1997-2004 Corvette C5 SLC56 Front Replacement Caliper Kit

Upgrade the factory front brake calipers on your 1997-2004 Chevrolet Corvette C5 with the Wilwood SLC56 Front Replacement Caliper Kit. Engineered as a high-performance street and custom replacement for the original Corvette calipers, the SLC56 system provides improved styling, durability and braking performance while retaining the vehicle's existing 12.80-inch OE-dimension front rotors.

The SLC56 four-piston calipers bolt directly to the factory Corvette spindle without requiring additional caliper brackets or adapters. Stainless steel pistons provide excellent durability and corrosion resistance, while Wilwood's BP-10 Smart Pads deliver positive response, long wear and high fade resistance for performance street use. The kit also includes brake lines for a complete front caliper replacement package.
