If you’re looking to upgrade your classic ride, this 14" Pro+ Rear Brake Kit from Baer is a game changer. I’ve had my hands on this setup, and let me tell you, it’s built to impress. The heart of this system is the 6-piston caliper, which is not just a pretty face. It’s mounted to a robust 14-inch, two-piece rotor that’s both slotted and drilled, finished off with a zinc plating that not only looks sharp but also stands up to the elements.

What really sets the 6P caliper apart are the D.O.T compliant dust and weather seals. You won’t have to worry about dirt and grime messing with your performance. Plus, it uses the well-known D0731 pad type, which is a breeze to find when it’s time for replacements. The rotors come pre-assembled with NAS high-grade stainless hardware, so you know they’re going to hold up under pressure.

One feature I really appreciate is Baer’s unique backing plate. It’s not just a mount for the caliper; it houses a modern one-piece park brake shoe assembly. That’s a nice touch for anyone who wants a reliable parking brake without the fuss.

Installation is straightforward, and the kit includes stainless braided hoses and all the necessary hardware. It’s designed to fit most wheels that are 18 inches or larger, making it a solid choice for those classic Chevy full-size passenger cars from 1955 to 1957. Just make sure you’ve got the OE bearing on your axle housing ends, and you’re good to go.
