    Cheapest source for NEW Wilwood calipers?

    Like the title states, I need to go ahead and buy Dynapro's and pads so I can get my Massive "Street Kit" on the M42 car at the same time I put my new wheels on.

    I emailed Lee's 'Murican contact at EmeryMotorsports.net, but am still waiting for a reply.

    Anyone else have suggestions for me?



    Side note: Is the backing plate behind the hub/bearing assembly? I can't remember off the top of my head.

        Call Paul, Old Skool Style SpeedShop guy. They're in the heart of hot rod heaven and supply all the big name builders. Give him the model numbers, I bet he can beat prices you've got...

        909.596.9146

        I regularly got 20+% below Summit/Jegs/etc.

            I'm guessing you didn't call Paul. Give me the part #, I'll get a quote.

              Nope, too lazy.

              Shot an email over to Lee. He has got the Dynapro's with Bridge Bolt option and BP-20 pads shipping to me tomorrow.

              He has the best prices I found anywhere.

                    I did say this guy is 15-20% below Summit/Jegs on a regular, constant basis, right? Gimmie the part # so I can call for my own knowledge.

                          Well aware. What I couldn't remember was if the backing plate was in front of or behind the hub/bearing assembly.

                          IE, if I want to completely remove the heatshield am I going to have to pull the hub/bearing assembly.

                          I'm the type of person that if I'm going to have to pull a 19 year old wear part on a car to do a job, I'll go ahead and replace it so I'll never have to do it again.

                            Paul's price, $144.50

                            Shop our in-stock selection of brake calipers, including anodized and powdercoated colored brake calipers from the top brands in high performance.


                            Which one was yours, either way, he was cheaper.
