Have you weighed a set of these with 4 piston Wilwoods versus stock with stock calipers?

My little brain is doing hot laps thinking about an upcoming project........

Love the nickel finish.

I sure haven't Brian, they are pretty heavy though. Maybe about stock weight or +2 lbs over stock. Since the steering arms are hollow I saved a bit of weight but added it back with the larger caliper set. I should weigh them just for the heck of it. Thanks man.

I would think the Wilwood caliper is about half the weight of the stocker with the cast in mounts. Also, after you get done gusseting in a stocker, I'm guessing yours might be lighter than a gusseted stock one.
