Overview
The Baer Brakes 4262096HO is a rear Extreme Plus brake kit finished in Hugger Orange for Ford 9 Inch Early Big Bearing rear housings with a 5×4.50/5×4.75 bolt pattern. A 1-piece Monoblock 6-piston, 6S caliper clamps a 14.0 Inch two-piece rotor that is slotted, drilled and zinc plated. Baer offers the kit as a full rear package, with stainless braided hoses and hardware included.
The backing plate doubles as the caliper mount and holds a 1-piece park brake shoe assembly, so the parking brake is part of the kit. The 14 inch rotor suits wheels of 18 inch or larger, and wheel style varies in how it fits, so test the N085P template against the intended wheel before final assembly.
Key features
- Monoblock 6-piston 6S caliper built in Phoenix, Az
- CNC machined 2618 aluminum forging, U.S.-sourced
- Stainless pistons, abutments and noise suppression clips
- Staggered piston layout to limit uneven pad wear
- Dual dust, weather and pressure seals
- Hugger Orange powder coated finish
- Pre-assembled stainless hardware with a billet aluminum hat
Choosing the right setup
Rear brake upgrades are easier to plan when the wheel, rotor and caliper are considered together. The rotor’s diameter sets how much room is left inside the wheel, and wheel style determines whether the rotor and hub clear the spokes or inner barrel. Testing the fit before final assembly avoids rework once the axle is installed.
Rear suspension wear shows up quickly on a brake system that is working harder, so check bushings and control arm fasteners before the upgrade. Keep the parking brake cable path clear of the exhaust and any moving suspension parts. Brake fluid should be fresh when the system is first filled, and it should be replaced on a regular schedule after that.
- Wheel style and inner barrel clearance
- Parking brake cable route away from heat sources
- Fresh fluid after the first fill and on a regular schedule

Vehicle fitment
Fitment is not attached to this kit in the manufacturer fitment list. The kit targets the Ford 9 Inch Early Big Bearing axle flange and a 5×4.50/5×4.75 wheel pattern, which are the points to match against your vehicle.
Confirm your vehicle’s year, model and trim before ordering.
Installation notes
Rotors come with NAS high grade stainless hardware already fitted. Compare the N085P template with your wheel before final assembly, since the minimum wheel diameter is 18.0 Inch. Park brake cables are not supplied, so arrange the cable routing separately. Mounting should be left to a technician who has worked on rear disc upgrades.
What’s included
