TCE Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) Conversion Kit
For all Wilwood rear kit owners with Drum-in-Disc (DND) parking brakes.
Take your ride to the next level with an EPB conversion!
The TCE/Wilwood EPB Conversion is a complete, simple and effective way to mount the Wilwood EPB calipers to an older DND system found on many stock and custom rear axles. Ford, GM, Mopa and Specialty suppliers; if it has a DND kit now; this kit will update you to push button bliss!
Each TCE/Wilwood kit includes: A complete new Wilwood EPB system with calipers, controller, harness and push button, TCE adapter plates, an assortment of mount offset "banana" spacers and hardware to adapt to the back of your current Wilwood axle base plate. Minor assembly work is needed after the removal of the old drum brake parts however no axle removal or disassembly is needed! Then its off to the EPB instructions for the electrical needs.
Our EPB Conversion is offered in two specs: Zero degree - mounting the calipers 180° to your existing road caliper or Twenty Five degree - Opposite yet 25° off centerline (up or down!) to allow for a variety of mounting positions to help clear suspension and axle components. There are both 11-13" flavors as well as a 14" version, covering all .810, 1.10 and 1.25" widths to fit the Wilwood factory kits. See the ordering notes below for details. You will require about 6" of clearance behind the inner surface of your current rotor for the motor. Measure this and determine which option for mounting best works for your needs. *See the drawing below.
