Default Having trouble with finding brakes

Im looking to upgrade my brake system with the Baer GT-Plus system. However all I can find for kits is the Front System that comes with the calipers, etc. And the rear kit I found is pretty much just the rotors. Does anyone know if baer has the rear kit that consist of all the stuff the front kit does? Calipers and all.

Baer does not make a "kit with everything" for the rear.

The problem is retaining the stock parking brake. Aftermarket calipers do not have this provision, so they just relocate the OEM caliper out back to solve that problem.


Though, if you don't mind me asking, why do you want to put something that big on the rear? You will not see any performance gains out of it, and it will actually screw up your brake bias front to rear as well as the proper function of the ABS system.

If you think the GT-Plus front kit isn't good enough for your needs, then step up to something like the Stoptech kit instead.

Your front handles 80% of your stopping power. Doesn't make much sense to overkill the back.
