They'll work if you take them apart and remove the spacer that sits between the two halves of the caliper. All the bodies are the same size, it's just the width of the spacer that determines the disc thickness.

Not modified Wilwoods, and not wishing to insult your intelligence, but just make sure that you have the seals in place when you put them back together!
