Overview
The Baer Brakes 4302469S is a silver rear disc brake kit for 1960–1986 Chevrolet C10 trucks with a 6-lug, 2WD rear end. It combines a 6S six-piston caliper with a 15 inch slotted and drilled rotor and park brake parts, and Baer assembles the hubs ahead of time so the kit is a bolt-on job.
The caliper is a forged one-piece monoblock with stainless steel pistons, and its staggered pistons help even out pad wear. Coverage in this kit runs through 1986, so confirm your truck’s model year before buying.
Key features
- Forged one-piece monoblock 6-piston 6S caliper
- Powder coated silver finish
- Stainless steel pistons, abutments and noise suppression clips
- Staggered pistons designed to limit uneven pad wear
- Dual seals guarding against dust, weather and pressure
- Two-piece slotted, drilled, zinc-plated rotor with billet aluminum hat
- Hubs arrive with bearings and races packed in Redline synthetic grease
Before you buy
Converting a rear axle to disc brakes changes how the parking brake works, so decide early how your truck will hold the vehicle when parked. This kit includes park brake parts, which keeps the parking function at the rear wheels. Cable routing, adjustment and the hydraulic line from the master cylinder all deserve attention during the swap, and the new rotor will expose any worn bearings or seals.
Rear disc conversions are often done alongside other axle work. Because the hub comes off during installation, many owners inspect the axle flange, bearing journal and seal at the same time. Pads should be bedded in after the first installation, and the system should be bled fully before the truck is driven on public roads.
- Measure your axle housing flange type before ordering
- Check wheel clearance around the caliper before final torque
- Replace worn brake hoses while the rear end is open
- Test the pedal and parking brake before driving

Vehicle fitment
The manufacturer fitment list covers 1960–1986 Chevrolet C10 trucks with a 6-lug rear end. Confirm your vehicle’s year, model and trim before ordering.
It fits Chevrolet C10 trucks from 1960 to 1986. Check your truck’s year, model and trim against this coverage before ordering, especially for Blazer or Suburban applications.
Installation notes
Because the hubs come assembled with bearings and races packed in Redline synthetic grease, the work is a bolt-on to the control arms. Lug nuts are not included, so plan to use your own. Check wheel clearance against template N135U before mounting, since Baer does not guarantee fit to every wheel style.
What’s included
The kit contains the rear brake components described above: the 6S caliper, the slotted and drilled two-piece rotor with aluminum hat, and the park brake parts.
Not included: front rotor and lug nuts.
