Overview
The Baer Brakes Pro Plus rear brake system in Monster Green, part number 4302532MG, is a rear disc brake kit for 1988–1998 Chevrolet and GMC C1500 2WD trucks and 1992–1999 C1500 Suburban and GMC Yukon models. It requires a W/OE C-clip (Bih) rear end and 10 inch rear drums, so confirm that axle setup first.
Each kit pairs a 6-piston 6P caliper with a 14 inch, two-piece slotted, drilled and zinc plated rotor. The pads are the D0731 type, and the Pro Plus line is Performance grade. The caliper finish is Monster Green.
Key features
- 6-piston 6P caliper in a floating design with stainless steel pistons and abutments.
- Staggered pistons intended to reduce uneven pad wear.
- Dual seals guard against dust, weather and pressure.
- Two-piece rotor, slotted, drilled and zinc plated, with a billet aluminum hat.
- Rotors come pre-assembled with NAS high grade stainless hardware.
- Backing plate acts as the caliper mount and houses a 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.
Before you buy
Switching a rear axle from drum brakes to a disc kit changes more than the rotor. The hub, backing plate and park brake assembly all become part of the braking system, so the axle type, bearing condition and wheel spacing should be checked before parts are ordered. Rear disc conversions also change how the park brake is operated, which makes cable routing a point to review early in the job.
Pads and rotors wear together, so replacing one without inspecting the other can lead to uneven contact. Sealed calipers and braided hoses tolerate the heat of regular use well, but fluid should be replaced on schedule and the system bled after any hose or caliper work. A worn park brake shoe affects holding power on a slope, so it deserves attention during routine service.
- Confirm axle type before ordering
- Check wheel clearance with the template
- Inspect park brake cables before final assembly
