Overview
The Baer Brakes 4301019FR is a front Extreme brake system in Fire Red for GM 1500 trucks and SUVs. It fits 1999–2023 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 models, plus Tahoe, Yukon, Suburban and Escalade models. The kit pairs a one-piece monoblock six-piston caliper with a 15-inch slotted, drilled, zinc-plated rotor to replace the front disc brakes.
Baer machines the 6S caliper from 2618 aluminum forging and finishes it in powder coat. Stainless steel pistons and abutments sit behind dual seals that guard against dust, weather and pressure, and the pistons are staggered to help even out pad wear. The kit uses the D1247 pad type and comes with all mounting brackets and hardware.

Before you buy
A front brake upgrade changes more than stopping power. A larger caliper and rotor can need more room inside the wheel, so measure your wheel barrel and spoke design before committing, and treat the minimum wheel size as a fit check rather than a guarantee. Wheels with thin spokes or deep offsets usually leave the least clearance, and tire size matters too because taller sidewalls change how close the tire sits to the caliper body.
Front pads wear faster on trucks that tow or carry heavy loads, and a new rotor often calls for fresh pads and a check of the brake hoses at the same time. Watch for pulsing at the pedal, grooves on the rotor face, and pads worn past their wear indicator. The kit re-uses the original hoses, so inspect them for cracks or bulging before installation and replace any that show wear.
- Check wheel clearance before mounting the caliper
- Replace pads and hoses that show wear during installation
- Bed in new pads gently before heavy braking

Installation notes
The kit re-uses your truck’s original brake hoses, so the existing hoses carry over to the new caliper. Compare Baer template N070U with your wheel before mounting, since Baer cannot guarantee fit for every wheel style, and note the 19.0-inch minimum wheel diameter. Brake work affects stopping performance, so have a qualified technician install and bleed the system.
What’s included
The kit includes the Monoblock 6S caliper, the 15-inch one-piece slotted, drilled, zinc-plated rotor, and all mounting brackets and hardware.
Not included: Brake hoses. The kit re-uses your vehicle’s original equipment hoses.
