Overview
Part number 4262688HO is the Baer Brakes Extreme Plus rear brake system finished in Hugger Orange. It is a rear disc brake kit for the 2012–2018 Ford F-150, and Baer also names the Ford Raptor in the same years as an application.
The kit is built around a 1-piece monoblock, 6-piston caliper and 15 inch 2-piece slotted rotors. It is meant for trucks running 19 inch or larger wheels, and it keeps the factory park brake and hoses in place.
Key features
- Six-piston monoblock caliper, model 6S, manufactured in Phoenix, AZ
- Staggered pistons aimed at more even pad wear
- Stainless steel pistons, abutments and noise suppression clips
- Dual seals against dust, weather and pressure
- Billet aluminum hat on the 2-piece slotted, drilled, zinc-plated rotor
- Machined from U.S. sourced 2618 aluminum forging
- Hugger Orange caliper color with a powder coated finish
Stopping power and pad bedding
New pads and rotors need a bedding procedure to transfer an even friction layer. Make several moderate stops from moderate speed before any heavy braking, then let the brakes cool. Skipping this step can cause vibration and reduced bite.
Hugger Orange is a finish choice only, and color does not change braking behavior. Powder coat can be marked by rotor heat and rubbing from the wheel, so touch up chips with high-temperature caliper paint to keep corrosion away.
Monoblock calipers hold pads on both sides in one housing, so pad wear is compared side to side at each service.
- Check the rotor surface for heat cracks after hard use
- Keep brake fluid fresh, since moisture lowers its boiling point
- Torque wheel bolts after the first few drives

Vehicle fitment
Applications cover 2012–2018 Ford F-150 trucks in 2WD and 4WD, and the Ford Raptor 12-18. No other years are covered.
Other F-150 years, other truck generations and other Ford models are outside this list. Confirm your vehicle’s year, model and trim before ordering.
Installation notes
Baer recommends checking wheel clearance with the N125U template before mounting, and the wheel should be 19 inch or larger to match the listed minimum. Because the factory park brake is reused, confirm its operation after the rear brake swap. As with any brake service, bed in the new pads and bleed the lines before driving.
What’s included
Six-piston 6S monoblock calipers, 2-piece rotors with NAS high grade stainless hardware pre-assembled, and all brackets and hardware.
Not included: The park brake is not part of this kit, and the factory hoses are reused. Brake pads are D1247 type, so confirm the pad set against your installation before starting.
