Overview
The Baer Brakes 4262149GB is a Grabber Blue Pro Plus 13.0 Inch rear disc brake system for Ford 9 Inch Torino (Late Big) bearing housing ends. It is a kit built around a 6-piston fixed caliper and a 13.0 Inch vented rotor.
Each rotor is a two-piece slotted, drilled and zinc plated design with a billet aluminum hat. The caliper bolts to a backing plate that also houses a one-piece park brake shoe assembly, which gives the kit a parking function as well as service braking. Pads follow the D0731 pattern.
This kit suits drivers with a Ford 9 Inch rear axle that uses a 5×4.50/5×4.75 bolt pattern. Verify the axle flange and bolt pattern before selecting it.
Key features
- Two-piece, 6-piston (6P) caliper manufactured in Phoenix, Az
- Forged or billet aluminum body, CNC machined from US-sourced material
- Powder coated, with stainless steel pistons and noise suppression clips
- Pistons staggered to limit uneven pad wear
- Dual seals for dust, weather and pressure
- Rotor pre-assembled with NAS high grade stainless hardware
- Stainless braided, DOT approved hoses and hardware included
Signs the rear brakes need attention
Rear brake wear tends to show up as a pulse in the pedal, a pull to one side under braking, or a grinding noise from the back of the vehicle. Any of these symptoms warrants a look at the rotor, pads and caliper before the next long drive.
Rotor surfaces should be checked for deep grooves or heat cracks, and the hat area should be inspected for looseness. Pads should be replaced before the friction material reaches the backing, since metal contact can damage a rotor that is otherwise serviceable.
A wheel that wobbles or a park brake that holds poorly can point to an adjustment or installation issue rather than normal wear, so the system should be inspected promptly.
- Pulsation in the pedal
- Pull to one side during braking
- Grinding or squealing from the rear

Vehicle fitment
This kit has no vehicle fitment listed. It is for the rear axle with Ford 9 Inch Torino/Late Big Bearing flanges, a 5 Lug hub on 5×4.50/5×4.75 bolt circles, and a 17.0 Inch minimum wheel diameter.
Confirm your vehicle’s year, model and trim before ordering. Other axle flange and bolt pattern combinations fall outside this kit’s coverage.
Installation notes
The rotor arrives pre-assembled and the braided hose setup is already included with the kit. Compare the Q082H template with your wheel before mounting, as Baer recommends for any wheel choice. Brake installation calls for a qualified technician working with the vehicle safely raised and supported.
What’s included
The kit has the caliper and backing plate with the one-piece park brake shoe assembly, a 13.0 Inch two-piece slotted rotor with stainless hardware, and stainless braided hoses with hardware.
