Overview
The Baer Brakes Pro Plus rear brake system in Hugger Orange, part number 4302532HO, is a rear disc brake kit for 1988–1998 Chevrolet and GMC C1500 2WD trucks, plus 1992–1999 C1500 Suburban and Yukon models. It targets a W/OE C-clip (Bih) rear end and 10 inch rear drums, so confirm your axle matches that setup before ordering.
A 6-piston 6P caliper clamps a 14 inch two-piece rotor that is slotted, drilled and zinc plated. Pads use the D0731 type, and the Pro Plus line is Performance grade. The caliper finish is Hugger Orange.
Key features
- Floating 6-piston 6P caliper with stainless steel pistons and abutments.
- Staggered piston layout meant to limit uneven pad wear.
- Dual seals rated for dust, weather and pressure.
- Slotted, drilled, zinc-plated two-piece rotor with a billet aluminum hat.
- Rotors arrive pre-assembled with NAS high grade stainless hardware.
- Backing plate doubles as the caliper mount and holds the one-piece park brake shoe assembly.
- Stainless noise suppression clips and a powder coated finish.
- CNC machined from U.S. sourced forged or billet aluminum; manufactured in Phoenix, Az.
Choosing the right setup
A rear disc kit is only as good as the axle and hydraulic system it connects to. Master cylinder size, proportioning valve setup and fluid condition all affect how the rear brakes respond, so review the full braking system when adding this kit. Wheel choice also matters, since a larger wheel leaves less room for the caliper and rotor hat.
Hugger Orange is a finish choice only and does not change how the caliper brakes. Shops often replace pads, hoses and fluid together during a rear conversion because they are exposed to the same heat. Keep track of pad material and brake fluid type so future service matches the system it was designed around.
- Check master cylinder compatibility
- Replace hoses and fluid with the pads
- Keep wheel clearance in mind for future tire changes
