    After MANY years of wanting to upgrade my brakes, I just bought my second and third Wilwood brake kits (I previously purchased a 4-piston front kit for my G-body): this time for the front and rear of my 2004 GMC Yukon XL. I plan to install them by the end of March. I'll keep you posted with an update afterwards. While the factory installed brakes lasted over 230K, I have always felt their performance left a bit to be desired, particularly when loaded. Last December, I installed a set of late model production 22" wheels on it but felt it sat a bit too high for my taste. Consequently, I bought and installed a Belltech suspension kit which lowered the ride height, 3" in the front and 4"' out back. I have to say I'm impressed with the results! I never imagined such a BIG vehicle could actually track so nicely, but body roll is virtually non existent. Next up: F/R sway bar kits and rear air bags to round out the suspension.

      Wilwood Disc Brakes awesome! Best kit I ever bought! No guesswork, all the pieces are there and the quality is top notch all the the way to how they were packaged

    I've got a car you can use for R&D since you have nothing for the front brakes on them and there is a demand out there for them. The aftermarket has completely forgotten about the 71-76 B body Chevy's.

      Wilwood Disc Brakes there absolutely is a market for 70s b bodies. I have a 1975 caprice convertible and I’d like to know if you have a rear disc conversion kit.
