A 4-wheel disc brake upgrade (Corvette-style 4-piston calipers for both front and rear) was offered on the 1968 Camaro as a "heavy-duty service" package sold through Chevrolet car dealers. In 1969, a JL8 package could be ordered as a RPO on production vehicles. These unique, high-end brakes were very rare, being sold on only about 200 production vehicles.

REKUDO is making complete JL8 brake systems available again. Upgraded components, like forged aluminum calipers, premium rotors, dust shields, brake hoses, spindles, hubs, and other parts can be purchased to install, maintain, and repair JL8 brake systems on your early Corvette, Camaro, or Firebird. They are ideal for use in all high-performance applications.

REKUDO JL8 brake calipers are forged from 7075 aircraft grade aluminum and are 50 percent lighter than stock cast iron calipers. They are available in several finish options-- red or black powdercoat or raw forged aluminum with and without the REKUDO logo.
