Overview
The Baer Brakes Pro Plus 4301367GB is a 13-inch front disc brake kit in Grabber Blue with a fixed six-piston caliper. It fits 1978–1988 GM G-Body cars and 1982–2003 Chevrolet and GMC S10 and S15 pickups, along with the S10 and S15 Blazer and Jimmy. Wheels 17 inches or larger are required.
Billet aluminum hubs arrive with premium bearings packed in Redline synthetic grease and billet dust caps fitted. The spindles are supplied at stock height and pre-assembled. A set of stainless braided hoses, mounting brackets and hardware completes the kit, and the caliper is made in Phoenix, Arizona.

Pad and rotor wear
Pads on a front kit like this wear faster than rears because they do most of the stopping. Uneven wear often comes from a sticking slide pin or a caliper that does not release fully, so check pad faces for one-sided wear during inspection. Scored or lipped rotors should be machined or replaced before new pads go on.
Staggered pistons spread clamping force across the pad, which helps wear stay even when the system works as designed. That benefit depends on clean sliding surfaces and fresh hardware, so lubricate the caliper slide points with the lubricant suggested for them and replace noise clips when pads change.
Replacing pads and rotors together keeps the friction surfaces matched, and bedding in the new pads afterward helps them transfer an even layer of friction material.
- Check slide pins for free movement
- Replace noise clips with each pad change
