Overview
The Baer Brakes 4262098GB is an Extreme Plus rear brake system finished in Grabber Blue for Ford 9 Inch Torino (Late Big) bearing housing ends. Its 5×5.00 inch bolt circle and five-lug hub are the main fitment references, and no single vehicle model is named with this kit.
A 1-piece Monoblock six-piston caliper clamps D1247-type pads against a 14 inch two-piece slotted, drilled, zinc-plated rotor. The backing plate that carries the caliper also houses a 1-piece park brake shoe assembly, so the parking brake sits inside the same rear housing.
Key features
- Monoblock 6S caliper with a one-piece body and six pistons
- Caliper body CNC machined from U.S.-sourced 2618 aluminum forging, powder coated
- Stainless steel pistons paired with stainless abutments and noise suppression clips
- Staggered piston arrangement to reduce uneven pad wear
- Dual seals for dust, weather and pressure
- Two-piece rotor, slotted and drilled, zinc plated, with billet aluminum hat
- Park brake shoe assembly built into the backing plate
- Stainless braided hoses and NAS high grade stainless hardware supplied
Things to check
Before installing a rear disc kit, confirm the axle housing and bearing ends match the flange the kit was built for. Check the bolt pattern and lug count against the wheels you plan to run, since a mismatch can leave the rotor unseated. Wheel backspacing and spoke design also decide whether the caliper body has room to sit clear of the wheel face.
Brake hardware works as a system, so the rest of the rear end matters too. Inspect the axle seals, wheel bearings and brake lines while the axle is open. Parking brake cable routing should be checked against the built-in shoe assembly so the lever engages smoothly without binding.
- Measure the wheel clearance before final assembly
- Check brake hose routing away from heat and moving parts
- Verify the parking brake lever travel after installation

Vehicle fitment
The kit is built for the Ford 9 Inch Torino/Late Big Bearing axle flange at a 5×5.00 inch bolt pattern. Use the N085P template to confirm the wheel will clear the 14 inch rotor and caliper.
Installation notes
Match the rear axle to the Ford 9 Inch Torino/Late Big Bearing flange before installing the backing plate. The rotors arrive pre-assembled, so keep the hardware set intact during handling. Park brake cables are not included, so check the parking brake connection before the vehicle is driven. A qualified brake technician should complete the installation.
