Overview
The Baer Brakes 4301367FR is a Pro Plus front disc brake kit in Fire Red for GM G-Body and S10/S15 vehicles. It pairs a 6-piston caliper with a 13 inch, two-piece slotted, drilled and zinc plated rotor, and the hubs and spindles arrive pre-assembled.
It fits Buick Regal, Chevrolet El Camino, Malibu, Monte Carlo, S10 and S10 Blazer, GMC S15 and S15 Jimmy, Oldsmobile Cutlass and Cutlass Supreme, and Pontiac Grand Prix models. It gives owners of those vehicles a six-piston front brake setup while keeping the 5×4.75 wheel bolt pattern and the stock height spindles included with the kit.
Key features
- Six-piston fixed caliper (6P) manufactured in Phoenix, Arizona, from CNC machined components of US sourced forged or billet aluminum
- Powder coated Fire Red caliper finish
- Stainless steel pistons, abutments and noise suppression clips
- Staggered pistons designed to minimize uneven pad wear
- Dual seals for dust, weather and pressure
- Two-piece slotted, drilled, zinc plated rotor with a billet aluminum hat
- Billet aluminum hubs with premium bearings packed with Redline synthetic grease, plus billet dust caps
- Uses the popular D0731 pad type (FMSI D0731)
Pads and rotor wear
Brake pads and rotors wear together, so the pad type matters whenever either part is replaced. The D0731 pad type is common for this style of caliper, and matching pads to the rotor face helps the friction surface seat evenly. When pads are changed, look at the rotor for deep grooves, blue heat marks or a raised lip at the outer edge, since any of these can shorten pad life.
Hubs, bearings and dust caps also need periodic attention. After the first few drives, re-check the caliper bolts and bracket hardware, because fasteners can settle during early use. Keep the braided lines clear of heat sources and sharp edges, and replace any hose that shows cracking or bulging.
- Check pad thickness at every wheel service
- Inspect the rotor face for cracks or heavy scoring
- Look for fluid seepage at hose fittings

Installation notes
The hubs, bearings and spindles arrive pre-assembled, so the work centers on mounting the caliper, rotor and braided hoses with their included brackets and hardware. Wheel fit is not guaranteed across every wheel style, so compare your wheel to the Q082H template before mounting. Have the finished installation checked by a qualified technician, since brakes are safety equipment.
What’s included
The kit includes the 6-piston caliper, two-piece rotors pre-assembled with NAS high grade stainless hardware, billet aluminum hubs with premium bearings, billet dust caps, stock height spindles, mounting brackets, braided brake hoses and hardware.
Not included: wheels, which must be sourced separately and checked against the template.
