Those black calipers look great behind those wheels! I kinda wish Ram would have offered some painted calipers from the factory! Huge performance truck with meh looking brakes!
Great video! I cannot wait for my TRX to arrive later this year. What size rims and tires do you need to get the Wilwood brakes? Do they come in any other color? Finally Wilwood brakes!
Check the link in the description, says 20" minimum. My truck comes in this week and I want bigger brakes but not willing to go up to a 20 personally. Guess I'll deal with the stockers.
HUGE benefit. I had the same set of TX6R brakes on my 10,000 dually and they trimmed 60--0 stopping distance by 11 feet. That may not sound like much but that's half the length of truck.
@Jay Tilles I have the same kit on mine and brakes shake like crazy, tried new rotors/hats and same thing - any issues you've experienced with this kit yet?
Man I want these for my TRX. Where do you usually go to take your TRX off road in the desert? I’m right in the San Dimas area. Where would you recommend I can take the truck and really feel its capabilities off road?
The question here is not about the looks but performance. How do they perform? Will they be better than the original for a truck with a trailer? That is the question.
Well... I have Wildwood on my 1991 F150, and a 1970 Charger and I'm not feeling the difference. The reason for my question. On the other hand, I've done other conversions, with OEM adaptation to other cars I have, my 56 & 57 Chegy and found better results and that's no laughing matter. There's no bigger disappointment than paying big dollars for a system like that, and not achieve what you're looking for... Better breaking.
Let me go even further... I swapped the brakes on my 2014 Jetta for the GTI, it has bigger brakes and the performance on that swap is better than the other two that have Wildwood. Those were picked up from the Junkyard. Again, I'm not a regular Joe asking a question, but somebody with experience on this matter.
Stock TRX brakes suck! Big miss on Ram, not that a 100k truck doesnt have enough profit margin to have some decent stopping power of a 6000lb truck with 700hp. I warped my rotors in first 15k miles, upgraded slightly with ebc pads as only options available at the time were the roterra’$$$.
I have this kit on my 17 RAM 1500 and absolutely love the stopping power they offer. Great confidence while driving with the crazy drivers in CA!
Wish they were making a brake kit for the stock 18” inch wheels
Problem is you can't really fit big brakes on those rims

Wish you showed the brake line install

Two questions…..can rotor hats be purchased undrilled..?
Are non cast iron rotors available for less unstrung weight….?
Tire and wheel specs?
Gonna be upgrading myb19 F350 with those brakes
How fast does the black wear off the rotor?
How much does this cost? I just got my Lunar TRX and I know my breaks could be better
3k in their site
@@m.romaithi6217 thats not bad
Is there a 4 corner kit for a RAM 1500 DT limited?
There are no brakes for the rears yet because of the electronic parking brake. Wilwood is working on it.
How is Wilwood going with a 4 corner kit for the Limited? @@JayTilles
I want these for my 2020 Ram 1500 and since I pull a trailer I'm curious how much more they would benefit me.

Sport bike stoppie performance
16” rotors are still pretty small for that truck. Not a bad price tho.
They are the largest you can stuff within 20" wheels. Any larger rotors and you won't have room for the calipers.
I don't even want to know the priceeeeeee brakes but is definitely stopping now...
lol! at 1:36 that caliper looked as big as that dude!...
❤😂😂🎉🎉😢😢😢😮😮😮😮😮😅
Why?

It's been a year since any videos have been posted.... dude probably went broke spending money on stupid sh.😅
