New guy with another new guy question. I'm trying to pick out my wilwood rear brake kit. I have a 9 inch with what I believe are the big ford new style housing ends(see picture.)

I'm trying to figure out whether I need the 2.36 or 2.50 offset. Not sure if this is specific to what style housing end I have or if I'm going to have to measure. Here is the wilwood kit I'm looking at:

Thanks in advance.

That looks like a new style Big Ford (Torino) end. All these measurments are center of hole to center of hole. It should measure 3.15 from top hole to top hole accross the top, 2" vertical hole to hole on either side, and 3.562 hole to hole horizontal hole to hole on the bottom. A New Style Big Ford is a 2.5 offset and requires a 140-7140 brake kit for a 12.2 (4) piston Dynalite.

We have them in stock
