If you're looking to upgrade your classic Chevy from the ground up, this Baer 12" SS4 Rear Brake Kit is a solid choice. Designed specifically for 1955-57 Chevy Full Size Passenger Cars, this kit is packed with features that make a real difference on the road. It’s not just about stopping power; it’s about confidence behind the wheel.

At the heart of this system is the S4 4-piston caliper, which is mounted to a robust 12-inch, one-piece rotor. This rotor isn’t just any rotor; it’s slotted, drilled, and zinc-plated, ensuring durability and performance. The caliper itself is made right here in Phoenix, AZ, and comes with D.O.T compliant dust and weather seals—so you know it’s built to last, even in less-than-ideal conditions. Plus, it uses the popular DR1 or HB100 pad type, making replacements a breeze.

One of the standout features of this brake kit is its unique backing plate. It not only serves as a caliper mount but also houses a modern, one-piece park brake shoe assembly. That means you get a cleaner, more reliable setup without the hassle of multiple components. And let’s not forget about those stainless braided hoses that come included; they add an extra layer of reliability and aesthetics.

Now, let’s talk specs. This kit fits most 16-inch or larger wheels, so if you’ve got a classic ride, you’re likely in the clear. The caliper comes in a vibrant Hugger Orange that’ll definitely catch some eyes. With four pistons working to clamp down on those vented rotors, you can expect excellent stopping power, whether you’re cruising the boulevard or hitting the back roads.

Here’s a quick rundown of what you can expect:

  • Caliper Type: Fixed, with 4 pistons for maximum braking efficiency.
  • Rotor Size: 12 inches in diameter with a thickness of 1.020 inches.
  • Fitment: Specifically for Chevy Full Size Passenger Cars from 1955 to 1957 with OE Bearing on Axle (BOA) Housing Ends.
  • Lug Count: 5, with a bolt pattern of 5x4.75.
  • Includes: Park brake and cables for a complete installation.

In short, if you want to enhance your classic Chevy’s braking performance while keeping it true to its roots, this Baer Brake Kit is worth considering. It’s a combination of modern engineering and classic design that just works. Trust me, your ride will thank you.
