Alright, let’s talk about the Baer 6P Pro+ rear brake system. If you’ve got a 1979-1984 Ford Mustang, this setup is a game changer. We’re talking about a beefy 6-piston caliper paired with a 13-inch, two-piece rotor that’s both slotted and drilled, all zinc plated for that extra bit of protection against the elements. What I really dig about this system is the unique billet backing plate. Not only does it serve as a caliper mount, but it also houses the bankisa 1-piece park shoe. This is a serious upgrade over the usual drum-in-hat setups you see everywhere. It works better and feels more modern—trust me, you’ll notice the difference when you hit the brakes.

Now, the build quality is top-notch. You’ve got stainless steel brake hoses that are ready to handle whatever you throw at them, and the calipers come with D.O.T. compliant dust and weather seals, so you don’t have to worry about grit and grime messing things up. Plus, all the hardware is high-grade stainless, and the rotors come pre-assembled, which is a nice touch. Just keep in mind, you’ll need at least 17-inch wheels to fit this setup—use the provided template to double-check fitment.

Fitment:

• Designed for 1979-1984 Ford Mustang
• 4 x 4.250 Wheel Bolt Pattern

Why go for the Pro+?

• It gives you a consistent look front and rear—Baer is the only brand that pulls this off. The rear calipers are specifically designed for rear use, featuring smaller, staggered pistons to help reduce pad taper.
• Everything you need is included right in the box—hoses, fittings, and park brake cables.
• The hat is made from 6061 T-6 billet aluminum, anodized black, and bolted to the rotor for added durability.
• High-grade U281 fine thread stainless hardware with captured nuts means you won’t be losing parts anytime soon.

Let’s break down the 6P Pro+ Caliper:

• It’s got a slick silver powder coat finish, and you can also get it in black or red—custom colors are available if you want to stand out.
• The caliper design is a two-piece forged setup with six cross bolts for extra strength.
• Stainless steel pistons and noise suppression springs keep everything running smoothly.
• Staggered piston sizes help minimize pad wear, so you’re not changing pads every other week.
• Dual seals keep dust and moisture out while meeting D.O.T. standards.
• It can handle both 13-inch and 14-inch rotors, giving you some flexibility.
• The logo is machined and hand-painted, adding a nice touch of class.
• It’s compatible with C5 and C5 backing plates from 1997-2012 Corvettes for easy pad replacements.
• Available in both front and rear configurations, so you can keep that aesthetic consistent.
• Rear calipers are specifically designed with smaller pistons to match the front brakes perfectly.
• For c-clip style axles, these systems come with Baer’s Verislide self-centering brackets.
• Uses the right banjo style fittings—no pipe threads here, folks.
• You can custom order it with different piston sizes to fit your needs.
• And yeah, it’s 100% MADE IN USA with materials sourced right here!

If you're serious about your Mustang and want a brake system that matches your passion, this is the way to go.
