Overview
The Baer Brakes Pro Plus 13.0 inch rear brake system, part number 4262177CY, is a rear disc brake package in Comp Yellow for Ford 8 inch and 9 inch rear ends with the small bearing housing. It pairs a 6-piston fixed caliper with a 13.0 inch two-piece slotted, drilled, zinc-plated rotor and D0731 brake pads. Its backing plate serves as the caliper mount while housing a one-piece park brake shoe assembly.
The grade is Performance, and the staggered pistons are designed to minimize uneven pad wear. Match the axle flange and wheel to the kit before installing it. The 13.0 inch Pro Plus is designed for most 17 inch or larger wheels.

- Backing plate that houses a one-piece park brake shoe assembly
- Caliper manufactured in Phoenix, AZ, with CNC machined components of forged or billet aluminum
Pads, rotors and wear
Rear disc brakes do most of their work through the pad and rotor pair, so the two should be inspected together. Staggered pistons help the pad wear evenly across its face, but pads still need checking for thickness and for glazing after hard stops. Rotors that show deep grooves, heat cracks or a pulsing pedal are usually due for service, and a worn rotor can wear new pads quickly.
A parking brake shoe built into the backing plate works differently from a hydraulic pedal circuit, so its adjustment should be checked once the rear assembly is set. Test the parking lever before the vehicle is driven on a grade. Keep brake fluid clean and dry, and replace it on the schedule your vehicle calls for.
- Check pad thickness at each tire rotation
- Look for scoring or blue heat spots on the rotor
- Test the parking brake on a slight incline before trail use
- Bleed the system after any hose or caliper work

Vehicle fitment
This kit is built for the Ford 8 Inch/9 Inch Small Bearing axle flange, which is a rear axle design rather than a specific vehicle. Confirm the axle and wheel match before installation, and use the Q082H template as the reference for wheel clearance.
Before ordering, confirm the year, model and trim your vehicle needs for this axle set-up.
Installation notes
Baer cannot guarantee wheel fit for every wheel style, so use template Q082H and compare it with your wheel before mounting. The minimum wheel diameter is 17.0 inch. Park brake cables are not included, so arrange a cable setup separately if your park brake needs one. Rear brake work calls for experience with disc systems, so take your time and double-check each connection.
What’s included
The package covers the 6-piston caliper, the 13.0 inch two-piece rotors pre-assembled with NAS high grade stainless hardware, the backing plate with its one-piece park brake shoe assembly, and the stainless braided hoses with mounting hardware.
Not included: Park brake cables.
