Alright, gearheads, let’s talk about the Baer SS4 rear brake system. If you’re looking to upgrade your ride’s stopping power, this setup is a solid choice. It features a beefy 4-piston caliper paired with a 12-inch one-piece rotor that’s been drilled and slotted. Trust me, you’ll appreciate the added bite when you hit the brakes hard. The rotor’s zinc plating helps resist corrosion, so you can keep your ride looking sharp even after some serious use.

One of the standout features here is the billet backing plate. Not only does it serve as the caliper mount, but it also houses a Banksia one-piece park brake assembly. This is a step up from the usual drum-in-hat setups you see everywhere. The Banksia design is modern and utilizes the same shoe as the late model Corvette C5/C6, which means you’re getting a reliable and effective parking brake. Just keep in mind, this is a general fit rear system, and you’ll need to grab your own park brake cables.

Fitment:

• Designed for stock 9-inch Ford axles with a Torino bearing housing, complete with the iconic SHELBY logo.
• Comes with both 5 x 4.50-inch and 5 x 4.75-inch wheel bolt patterns, so it’ll fit a variety of setups.

Why go for the SS4?

• You get that 12-inch directionally vaned rotor, which is perfect if you’re also considering the Track4 front brake system for a matched look and feel.
• The fully machined billet backing plate isn’t just for show; it’s built to last and holds the Banksia park brake assembly securely.
• All the hoses, fittings, and hardware you need are included in the package, so you won’t be scrambling for parts mid-install.
• Those 12-inch rotors can fit some 15-inch wheels and most 16-inch wheels—just make sure to check with a template to be sure.

What’s cool about the S4 caliper?

• It features four 10mm cross bolts for maximum stiffness, which is crucial when you’re pushing your car to the limits.
• Stainless steel abutments and noise suppression springs keep things quiet and smooth.
• The hard anodized aluminum pistons are durable and lightweight, helping with both performance and longevity.
• It has an internal crossover design and dual seals to meet D.O.T. specs, so you know it’s built to handle the elements.
• Each caliper comes with a machined logo that’s hand-painted—because who doesn’t love a little flair?
• Replacement pads are easy to find; you’ll want part number DR1 when it’s time to swap them out.
• Standard colors are red, black, or silver, but if you want something unique, custom colors are available.
• These are 100% MADE IN THE USA with materials sourced right here at home, so you can feel good about your purchase.

If you’re serious about your ride and need a rear brake system that won’t let you down, the Baer SS4 is worth checking out. It’s all about performance, reliability, and a bit of style—just what you want when you’re out on the road or at the track.
