Outlaw Racing GM series Caliper

Rebco Racing Enterprises’ line of Outlaw disc-brake calipers offers plenty of choices for racers looking to get the most out of their brakes. The Outlaw line currently offers seven different models of calipers with multiple sizes available for each. All but one is constructed from billet aluminum, which provides superior strength over a cast caliper. The lone exception, the Outlaw GM caliper, is targeted to the budget-conscious racer and is constructed from high-strength, cast aluminum.

Wondering which model is best for you? No problem; Rebco’s full-color catalog gives the vital stats for every model, including dimensions, specifications, features, and suggested usages. If you are still not sure, Rebco welcomes a call to its info/tech line.
