It sounds like the Gen3 has a specific problem with BBK

I just ordered the Wilwood kit, should be fitting it the week after Easter and will let everyone know how it works out.

Bren I should have one soon, I emailed them a few months ago and they were close.

Baer is a maybe and I don’t think R1 is making one for Gen3.

I’d be down for a brake upgrade for sure.

you cant get a "big brake" under a 17 inch wheel...

A few companies made one for the 17 but it wasn’t a massive BBK but an upgrade.

Waiting to hear how Andrew Macpherson made out with the wilwoods under factory wheels,
I finally gave up and went with alcons Ouch!

We tried to do them just after Easter, but the Wilwood brake hose fitting was different from the 2023 truck one. Just received the correct ones (we hope) and scheduled for fitting next Tuesday.
I saw one other Gen 3 a 2021 truck did their last week and all went great, noe CEL or other issues. So I am feeling more confident now.

Were you able to fit them in the factory beadlocks? I templated per Wilwood's dimensions
and from that its a no go!
Curious how you make out.
