Overview
Monster Green is the finish on this Baer Brakes Extreme Plus front kit, part 4301627MG, which covers 2WD Chevrolet and GMC C1500 trucks from 1988 to 1998 and C1500 Suburban and Yukon SUVs from 1992 to 1999.
Each kit combines a six-piston monoblock 6S caliper with 14-inch two-piece rotors, billet aluminum hubs and stainless braided brake hoses. The kit is built for React 2-inch drop spindles, and template N117P helps owners compare wheel fit before mounting. It uses the D1247 pad type.
Key features
- One-piece monoblock caliper with six stainless steel pistons
- Caliper body machined from U.S.-sourced 2618 aluminum forging, made in Phoenix, Az
- Abutments and noise suppression clips in stainless steel
- Staggered pistons designed to minimize uneven pad wear
- Dual dust, weather and pressure seals
- Powder-coated Monster Green finish
- Billet aluminum hubs with premium bearings and billet dust caps
Choosing the right setup
Monster Green is a finish choice, and the mechanical side of the kit is what determines how it performs on the truck. Caliper, rotor and hub work as a single assembly, so matching them to the spindle and wheel setup matters more than any single component. Owners running larger or heavier wheels should review clearance with the template before committing to the install.
Routine care keeps this type of system working consistently. Check the hubs for play, look for grease leaks around the bearings, and keep the dust caps in good condition. Braided hoses should be inspected for abrasion where they pass near suspension links and frame edges, since a damaged hose is hard to spot until pressure drops.
- Verify spindle type before mounting the calipers
- Use the template to check rotor and wheel clearance
- Inspect braided hoses at each wheel service
- Repack or replace bearings that feel rough or loose

Installation notes
Mounting brackets, stainless braided hoses and hardware come with the kit. Because the spindles are not supplied, confirm React 2-inch drop spindles are already on the truck. Use template N117P to compare the 14-inch rotor against your wheel before assembly.
