Overview
The Baer Brakes 4401001GB is a Pro Plus front brake system in Grabber Blue, built for 2007–2017 Jeep Wrangler JK vehicles that keep their factory spindles and hubs. The kit pairs a six-piston caliper with a 14-inch two-piece rotor, giving JK owners a complete front disc setup rather than loose components.
Calipers are manufactured in Phoenix, Arizona, and the aluminum parts are CNC machined from forged or billet stock sourced in the US. Grabber Blue is a powder coated finish. The pads use the D0731 type, and the system is sized for wheels of 18 inches or larger.
Key features
- Six-piston fixed caliper with a Grabber Blue powder coated finish
- Two-piece slotted, drilled, zinc-plated 14-inch rotor with billet aluminum hat
- Stainless steel pistons, abutments and noise suppression clips
- Staggered pistons help minimize uneven pad wear
- Dual seals guard against dust, weather and pressure
- Rotors pre-assembled with NAS high grade stainless hardware
Pads, rotors and maintenance
Brake pads are the friction material the caliper presses against the rotor, so their compound affects stopping feel, noise and dust. Drivers who mostly use pavement often choose a street compound, while those who tow or drive hard off road may prefer a compound that holds up to heat. The pad type should match the rotor size and caliper design.
When pads are replaced, it is common to check the rotor surface and its thickness, and to replace the rotor if it is worn past its minimum. New pads bed in best with gentle stops before full-force braking. Keep fittings clean and inspect the calipers for fluid seepage around the pistons and dust seals.
- Pad compound matched to your driving
- Rotor surface and thickness
- Brake fluid level
- Dust seal and piston condition
