If you're looking to upgrade your braking system, the Baer Pro+ Front Brake System is a solid choice that I've personally come to appreciate. It features a robust 6-piston caliper paired with a 13-inch two-piece rotor that's not just for show—it's slot and drill designed, and zinc plated to boot. This setup really gives you the confidence you need when you're pushing your ride to its limits.

One of the standout aspects of this system is the attention to detail. The stainless steel brake hoses are a nice touch, plus the calipers come equipped with D.O.T. compliant dust and weather seals. That means you can hit the trails or the track without worrying about dirt and grime messing with your performance. And let’s not forget about the NAS high-grade stainless hardware used in the pre-assembled rotor—it's built to last.

Fitment:

  • This system is designed specifically for stock 1985-1987 GM C4 Y-Body spindles and hubs, so you know it’s going to fit right out of the box.

Why go for the Pro+?

  • For starters, it gives you a consistent look front and rear, which is something Baer nails better than anyone else out there.
  • The calipers are designed with dust and weather seals, ensuring that the elements won’t compromise your stopping power.
  • No worries about fitting issues; Baer uses proper banjo fittings instead of those annoying pipe thread fittings.
  • It shares the same pad as the C5 (1997-2004) and C6 (2005-2012) Corvettes, making replacements easy and budget-friendly.
  • Everything you need is included in the package, from stainless braided hoses to fittings, so you won’t be scrambling for parts.
  • The rotor features a 6061 T-6 billet aluminum hat that's anodized black and securely bolted to the rotor.
  • When you get it, the 13-inch rotor comes pre-assembled with high-grade U281 fine thread stainless hardware and captured nuts—no guesswork involved.
  • Plus, it includes a set of 6061-T6 billet machined hubs with Timken or SKF bearings already installed, packed with Redline synthetic grease. It’s all about that smooth operation.

Details:

  • The two-piece forged caliper design is engineered with six cross bolts for extra strength.
  • Stainless steel pistons, abutments, and noise suppression springs add to the durability.
  • Staggered piston sizes help minimize pad wear, which is a game-changer for longevity.
  • With dual seals for dust/weather and pressure, it meets all D.O.T. specifications, giving you peace of mind.
  • The caliper can handle both 13 and 14-inch rotors, so you have some flexibility there.
  • Each caliper features a machined logo that’s hand-painted, adding a personal touch.
  • It comes with a sleek black powder coat finish, but if you're feeling adventurous, custom colors are available.
  • And yes, it uses the C5/C6 Corvette front pads (P/N D0731) for easy sourcing.
  • Just a heads up: the minimum wheel size you’ll need is 17 inches, so make sure to check fitment with the provided template.
  • If you want something tailored to your ride, you can custom order different piston sizes.
  • No changes to track width means you can keep your setup as is.
  • And to top it all off, this system is 100% MADE IN THE USA with materials sourced right here at home.

In short, if you own a Chevrolet Corvette from 1985-1987, the Baer Brakes Pro+ system is definitely worth considering. It’s built tough, performs like a champ, and looks great doing it.
