So, you're looking to upgrade your ride's braking system? Let me tell you about this front brake setup that I’ve been using. It comes equipped with a 6-piston caliper that’s mounted on a beefy 13-inch two-piece rotor. The rotor is not just any rotor; it’s slotted and drilled, plus it’s zinc plated for that extra layer of durability. You get stainless steel brake hoses, and the calipers are designed with D.O.T. compliant dust and weather seals. Trust me, these seals make a difference when you're out there on the road or hitting the trails.

Fitment:

  • This system is specifically designed for stock 1985-1987 GM C4 Y-Body spindles and hubs, so you know it’s going to fit like a glove.

Why go for the Pro+?

  • One of the coolest things about this setup is that it gives you the same look in the front and rear. Baer is the only company that pulls this off, which is pretty slick.
  • Those calipers? They’re sealed up tight against dust and weather, so you can ride with confidence.
  • And let’s talk about the banjo fittings—Baer uses proper ones, steering clear of any pipe thread nonsense.
  • When it comes time for pad replacement, you’ll appreciate that it uses the same pads as the C5 (1997-2004) and C6 (2005-2012) Corvettes. Easy and cost-effective, right?
  • Everything you need is included in the kit, even the stainless braided hoses and fittings.
  • The rotor has a 6061 T-6 billet aluminum hat that’s anodized black and securely bolted to the rotor.
  • Speaking of the rotor, it comes pre-assembled with high-grade U281 fine thread stainless hardware and captured nuts, so you won’t be scrambling for parts.
  • You also get a set of 6061-T6 billet machined hubs with Timken or SKF bearings already installed. They’re pre-assembled, packed with Redline synthetic grease, and ready to roll.

Details:

  • The caliper design is a two-piece forged unit with six cross bolts for that added strength you want when you’re pushing your limits.
  • Stainless steel pistons and abutments help prevent corrosion, and the noise suppression springs keep things quiet.
  • It features staggered piston sizes to minimize pad wear, which is a nice touch for longevity.
  • With dual seals—dust/weather and pressure—you can rest easy knowing it meets D.O.T. specifications.
  • The caliper is versatile enough to accept both 13 and 14-inch rotors, depending on your setup.
  • You’ll find a machined logo that’s hand-painted, adding a bit of flair to your ride.
  • It’s finished in a striking red powder coat, but if you want something different, custom colors are available.
  • It uses C5/C6 Corvette front pads (P/N D0731), so you won’t have to hunt for obscure parts.
  • Just a heads up: the minimum wheel size required is 17 inches, so make sure to check fitment with the provided template.
  • If you're looking for something specific, you can custom order it with a variety of piston sizes.
  • No need to worry about track width changes with this setup, either.
  • And the best part? It’s 100% MADE IN USA using US-sourced materials, so you know you’re getting quality.

In short, if you’ve got a Chevrolet Corvette from 1985-1987, this Baer Brakes Brake System is a solid choice. It’s all about performance and reliability, and it looks good doing it.
