Howdy forum friends! I saw this picture recently on a factory five build post and couldn't get a reply..... I want to know what this setup is and whether it is adaptable to a solid rear end configuration? I am looking for a brake configuration for a solid rear end setup that has larger calipers, ideally 4 piston calipers, but i also need an emergency brake configuration.

That setup was configured by Wilwood and made available for the 2015+ IRS setups. It bolts directly to the 2015+ knuckles that Factory Five has designed into the current IRS option. I am not aware that it would fit onto a solid axle setup, and not aware that Factory Five offers a Wilwood setup for solid axles other than the single piston caliper version including an integral e-brake. Which I've used a couple times and it works fine. If you want something different, probably not from Factory Five. I don't have any personal experience, but Gordon Levy is a Wilwood dealer and often mentions he has multiple configurations. You may want to contact him. Also, many builders lately are using electric e-brake setups, e.g. https://www.estopp.com/. That might be something else to consider.
