Overview
The Baer Brakes Pro Plus rear brake system, part number 4262186CY, is a complete 13-inch rear disc brake kit made for Ford 9 inch early big bearing rear axle ends with a 5×5.00 wheel bolt pattern. It pairs a 6-piston, 6P fixed caliper in Comp Yellow with a 2-piece slotted, drilled and zinc plated rotor, and it is sold as a kit. This kit is not matched to a specific year, model or trim, so confirm the axle flange, bolt pattern and wheel clearance first.
Baer’s backing plate carries the caliper and also houses a modern 1-piece park brake shoe assembly, so one plate handles both service braking and parking braking at the rear. Stainless braided hoses and hardware are included. The Pro Plus fits most 17 inch or larger wheels, with a minimum wheel diameter of 17.0 Inch. Clearance varies with wheel style, so use the Q082H template to compare clearance against the wheel you plan to use.
Key features

- 2-piece slotted, drilled, zinc plated rotor with a billet aluminum hat
- Rotors pre-assembled with NAS high grade stainless hardware
- Backing plate houses a 1-piece park brake shoe assembly
- Components CNC machined from US sourced forged or billet aluminum
- Powder coated finish in Comp Yellow
- Stainless braided hoses and hardware included
Before you buy
A rear disc kit replaces the hardware at the axle end, so the rotor, caliper and backing plate all need to match the axle flange and hub before the wheel goes back on. Rear rotors do more work on vehicles that carry extra weight or tow, and the friction surface is where most heat builds during repeated stops on long descents. Matching rotor thickness and hat design to the caliper keeps pad contact even and piston travel within its normal range.
Off road, rear brakes take in mud, water and grit thrown up from the tires. Sealed calipers and stainless pistons help limit corrosion, but braided hoses, bleeder screws and slide surfaces still need periodic inspection. After washing a vehicle that has been through water or mud, a quick check for rust on the rotor face and for park brake drag is worthwhile.
- Rotor face for deep grooves or blue heat marks
- Pads worn down to the wear indicator
- Hoses for cracks, chafing or bulging
- Park brake shoe adjustment and drag

Vehicle fitment
This kit is not matched to a specific year, model or trim. It is made for Ford 9 inch early big bearing rear axle ends with a 5×5.00 wheel bolt pattern, and the Q082H template helps check wheel clearance against your wheel.
Installation notes
The rotors are pre-assembled with NAS high grade stainless hardware, so the rotor and hat arrive ready to mount. Check the Q082H template against the wheel you plan to run, since the listed minimum wheel diameter is 17.0 Inch. The park brake shoe sits inside the backing plate, so rear brake work should be done by someone experienced with this style of system, with the vehicle safely supported.
What’s included
The kit includes the 6-piston 6P caliper, the 2-piece rotor with pre-assembled NAS stainless hardware, the Baer backing plate with its 1-piece park brake shoe assembly, and stainless braided hoses with hardware.
Not included: Park brake cables.
