Overview
The Baer Brakes 4262265GB is a rear SS4 Plus 13-inch brake system for Ford 9 Inch Torino (Late Big) bearing axle ends, finished in Grabber Blue with a 5×5.00 bolt pattern. It uses four-piston S4 calipers on 13.0 inch vented, two-piece rotors with a billet aluminum hat.
The backing plate is Baer’s design: it serves as the caliper mount and houses a modern one-piece park brake shoe assembly. Rotors come pre-assembled with stainless hardware, and the stainless braided hoses are supplied with matching hardware. The 13 inch SS4 Plus is described as fitting most 17 inch or larger wheels.

Vehicle fitment
This kit has no vehicle year, model or trim on the fitment list. The Ford 9 Inch Torino/Late Big bearing flange and 5×5.00 bolt pattern identify the rear axle hardware rather than a specific car or truck.
Baer advises checking the S135H template against the wheel you plan to run, since fit with every wheel style is not guaranteed.
Review the manufacturer’s specifications for your axle flange and bolt pattern. Confirm your vehicle’s year, model and trim before ordering.
Installation notes
The backing plate carries both the caliper and the park brake shoe assembly, so plan the park brake hardware together with the caliper installation. Park brake cables are not part of the package, so account for them before assembly. Brake work is safety critical, so a qualified technician should handle the mounting and testing.
What’s included
Included are the four-piston S4 calipers, two-piece rotors with pre-assembled stainless hardware, the backing plate and park brake shoe assembly, and stainless braided hoses with hardware.
Not included: Park brake cables.
