Overview
Part 4262098HO from Baer Brakes is the Extreme Plus rear brake system in Hugger Orange, built for Ford 9 Inch Torino (Late Big) bearing housing ends on a 5×5.00 inch bolt circle. Each kit centers on a 1-piece Monoblock 6-piston 6S caliper paired with a 14 inch two-piece slotted, drilled, zinc-plated rotor. It is a rear axle kit for that flange, not a package tied to a named vehicle.
The backing plate doubles as the caliper mount and holds a 1-piece park brake shoe assembly, keeping the parking brake within the rear housing. NAS stainless hardware comes pre-installed on the rotors, and the system uses FMSI D1247 pads.
Key features
- Monoblock 6S caliper with one-piece body and six pistons, made in Phoenix, Arizona
- Caliper body machined from 2618 aluminum forging sourced in the United States
- Powder coated finish in Hugger Orange
- Stainless pistons, abutments and noise suppression clips
- Staggered pistons intended to even out pad wear
- Dual seals guarding against dust, weather and pressure
- Two-piece rotor: slotted, drilled and zinc plated, with billet aluminum hat
- Park brake shoe assembly housed within the backing plate
Choosing the right setup
Choosing rear brake hardware starts with the axle, not the caliper color. The flange, bolt pattern and lug count set what can be mounted, so measure and confirm them before ordering. Wheel offset and spoke design also affect whether the caliper and rotor clear, which is why a template check matters for any rear disc setup.
Once the kit is on the axle, think about the parts it works with. Pads, brake lines, wheel bearings and the parking brake cable are often inspected at the same time, since the axle is already apart. Replacing worn components early avoids a second teardown and keeps the new rotor and caliper working as designed.
- Match pad compound to how the vehicle is driven
- Inspect hoses for chafing where they pass the suspension
- Keep the rotor surface clean of grease and dust
