Wilwood TX6R Forged 6-Piston Front Big Brake Kit 16.00" Slotted Rotors Red Calipers with Lines - 2014-2025 Ram 2500/3500 2WD/4WD
The Wilwood TX6R front big brake kit upgrades the 2014+ Ram 2500/3500 with massive 16.00" two-piece slotted rotors and forged 6-piston calipers that deliver shorter stopping distances, reduced fade, and consistent pedal feel under heavy towing or repeated hard braking. Featuring Spec37 alloy rotors with SmartPad BP-40 compound pads, stainless steel braided lines, and red powder-coated calipers, this kit provides the braking power needed for lifted trucks, heavy wheels/tires, or high-performance driving while maintaining full compatibility with factory ABS and master cylinder.
