I originally bought mine with the GM calipers up front and now I want them to be Wilwood. Pretty sure I can use the D52 Caliper as a direct bolt up for the bracket that came from TCI.
Bonus-those calipers will look very close to the D154 kit from Wilwood I will be putting on the rear!
Really like your paint on the cab as well.
Yes, the Wilwood D52 caliper will work on the front, but keep in mind the Wilwood D52 has nowhere near the clamping force of that GM big bore caliper.

Currently, the wheels/tires are 18x9.5 with 285/40/18 on all four corners. I'm hoping within a a year or two, I'll be able to upgrade to some forged 18x11s with 315 rubber!
