Overview
The Baer 4262193HO is a rear disc brake system for Ford 9 Inch Torino (late big) bearing housing ends, with a 5×5.00 inch wheel bolt pattern and a 13.0 inch rotor. Its 6-piston fixed caliper is finished in Hugger Orange and works with a two-piece slotted, drilled and zinc plated rotor.
The backing plate is the caliper mount and houses a one-piece park brake shoe assembly, so parking brake hardware is supplied. Rotors arrive pre-assembled with stainless hardware, and braided hoses ship with the kit. The 13 inch Pro Plus suits wheels from 17 inches up, but fit to every wheel design cannot be ensured, so measure with the Q082H template first.
Key features
- Six-piston caliper with staggered pistons, aimed at more even pad wear
- Pistons, abutments and noise suppression clips are stainless steel
- Double seals keep out dust and weather while handling pressure
- Caliper body machined in the US from forged or billet aluminum and powder coated
- Two-piece rotor, slotted and drilled with a zinc plated finish and billet aluminum hat
- Stainless hardware comes pre-installed on the rotor assembly
- Backing plate houses the park brake shoe assembly
Pad and rotor wear checks
Rear brake pads wear more slowly than fronts on many vehicles, but they still need regular inspection. Check thickness at each pad change and look for uneven wear across the pad face, which often points to a sticking caliper slide or an uneven rotor. The FMSI D0731 pad type sets the reference for replacement pads on this kit.
Rotors can develop a lip at the outer edge, heat checking or a pulsing pedal over time. Light surface scoring is normal, but deep grooves or cracks call for replacement. A two-piece rotor needs its hat and fasteners checked during service, since loose hardware leads to runout and vibration.
- Check the caliper slide pins for free movement
- Inspect the hat-to-rotor fasteners at each service
- Replace pads in matched sets on each side

Vehicle fitment
No vehicle year, make or model is tied to this kit. The Ford 9 Inch Torino (late big) bearing axle flange identifies an axle rather than a car or truck, so the kit must be matched to the rear axle already on the vehicle.
Confirm your vehicle’s year, model and trim before ordering. Compare the Q082H template with your wheel and check the axle specifications with the manufacturer.
Installation notes
- Verify wheel clearance against the Q082H template before the rotor and hat are mounted.
- The park brake shoe assembly sits inside the backing plate, so test the parking brake after assembly.
