So, let’s talk about the Baer Brakes 13 Inch Rear Pro+ Brake System. If you’re serious about your ride and want to amp up your braking game, this setup is worth considering. It features a 6-piston caliper that’s mounted to a solid 13-inch, 2-piece rotor that’s been slotted and drilled for better heat dissipation. Honestly, when you’re pushing your vehicle to its limits, having a rotor that can handle the heat is crucial.

One of the standout features here is the unique billet backing plate. It's not just a pretty face; it actually serves as a caliper mount and houses a one-piece park brake shoe. This setup is a huge upgrade over the typical drum-in-hat park brake systems you often see. It works better and feels more reliable when you need to secure your ride.

The system includes stainless steel brake hoses and D.O.T.-compliant dust and weather seals on the calipers, so you know it’s built to last. Plus, all the hardware is high-grade stainless, ensuring that it won’t rust or corrode over time. Just a heads-up, this is a general fit rear application, and it doesn’t come with park brake cables, so you’ll need to grab those separately.

Now, if you’re wondering about fitment, this is designed specifically for the 9-inch Ford big bearing housing. You’ll want to make sure your wheels are at least 17 inches to accommodate this setup, so double-check that before you dive in.

Why should you consider the Pro+?

• It gives you that sleek, uniform look front and rear—something Baer nails better than anyone else out there. The rear calipers are engineered specifically for rear applications, featuring staggered pistons that help reduce pad taper.
• Everything you need is included: hoses, fittings, and all the hardware. No scrambling to find parts.
• Just remember, park brake cables aren’t included, so you’ll need to sort that out.
• The hat is made from 6061 T-6 billet aluminum, anodized black, and securely bolted to the rotor for durability.
• It comes pre-assembled with high-grade U281 fine thread stainless hardware and captured nuts, making installation a breeze.
