- Minimum 20-inch wheel diameter required to accommodate larger brake components
- Includes all necessary mounting hardware; braided stainless steel flex lines may be required separately
Construction & Design
The TX6-DM kit features calipers constructed from high-strength aluminum alloy, offering an optimal balance of rigidity and weight savings. The six-piston design ensures even pressure distribution across the brake pads, reducing uneven wear and enhancing pedal feel for improved driver confidence.
The 15.00-inch rotors are crafted from premium alloy and precision-machined with slotted patterns to optimize cooling and maintain consistent friction during heavy use. Wilwood’s durable red powder coat finish on the calipers not only protects against corrosion but also provides a striking visual upgrade that complements the rugged appearance of Ram trucks.
All components are engineered to withstand the rigors of heavy towing, hauling, and off-road conditions while maintaining reliable and consistent stopping power.
Installation & Fitment
This big brake kit is designed for direct bolt-on installation on 2011–2026 Ram 2500 and 3500 models using the factory disc spindle and lug mount system. No spindle modifications are necessary, making it a straightforward upgrade for experienced mechanics and enthusiasts alike.
Due to the larger rotor and caliper size, a minimum wheel diameter of 20 inches is required to ensure proper clearance. Depending on your vehicle’s configuration, braided stainless steel flex lines may need to be purchased separately to complete the installation.

What does the Available to Promise date mean?
ETA stands for Estimated Time of Arrival. The date shown is calculated using our Available-to-Promise (ATP) system, which tracks real-time supplier commitments to determine when a product is expected to be available for delivery. Specifically, the date is calculated by adding 9 business days from the date a supplier has committed to ship the product, representing a worst-case scenario for when we can expect to receive inventory.
Please note: The ETA is an estimate, not a guarantee. While we work closely with our suppliers to keep dates as accurate as possible, delays due to shipping carriers, weather, customs, or supplier-side issues may occasionally push the actual arrival beyond the date shown. Likewise, inventory may arrive sooner than the ETA in many cases. If you would like to be notified for when this item arrives, sign up for our back in stock notifications!
