Overview
The Baer Brakes 4261576R is a Classic Series front brake kit with an 11.29 inch slotted, drilled and zinc plated rotor on a one-piece integral hub. It is intended for Wilwood Pro Mii spindles with a 5×4.50 wheel bolt pattern. No vehicle is named for this kit, so the spindle type and bolt pattern are the main fit checks.
Baer presents this model as a modern brake option for smaller wheels, with a 15.0 inch minimum wheel diameter. Two red powder coated PGC calipers use D0412 pads and ceramic friction material. Dust and weather seals, bearings and mounting brackets are included with the kit.

Before you buy
Front disc brake kits like this one replace the rotor, caliper, pads and wheel bearings as a matched set, so the components work together under load. Rotor diameter and hub design affect how much heat the system absorbs and how the pedal feels, which is why the spindle, wheel and master cylinder should be checked together before any parts are ordered.
After installation, bed in the new pads with a series of moderate stops before any hard braking. Check the bearing preload and lug hardware after the first few drives, and bleed the lines until the pedal feels firm. Inspect the rotor surface for scoring or heat cracks during routine service, and replace pads once the friction material wears down far enough to reduce braking feel.
- Confirm spindle type and bolt pattern before ordering
- Measure wheel clearance against the caliper body
- Replace brake hoses that show cracking or swelling
- Keep the master cylinder and pedal ratio matched to the kit

Installation notes
Plan around a 15/16 inch master cylinder and the proper pedal ratio, which is the stated design requirement. Manual setups can use a 7/8 inch master for lighter pedal effort. Anything larger than 15/16 inch generates too little line pressure for the pedal input required, so check the master before mounting.
What’s included
Two PGC calipers, rotors on 1-piece integral hubs, bearings with races pre-installed, dust caps, dust and weather seals, mounting brackets and all necessary hardware.
Not included: The master cylinder is not part of the kit.
