Notices 

– Read and Follow BEFORE ATTEMPTING INSTALLATION 

 

 

All installations require proper safety procedures and protective eyewear. 
  

 

All  installations  assume  basic  mechanical  skill  and  a  factory  service  manual  for  the  vehicle  on 
which the installation is to be performed. 

 

 

All references 

to the “left” side of the vehicle correlate to the driver’s side of the vehicle. 

 

 

Any installation requiring you to remove a wheel or gain access under the vehicle requires use of 
jack stands appropriate to the weight of the vehicle. In all cases, jack stands rated for a minimum 
of 2-tons is recommended. 

 

 

A selection of hand tools sufficient to engage in the installation of these products is assumed, and 
is  the  responsibility  of  the  installer  to  have  in  his/her  possession  prior  to  beginning  this 
installation.  All  installations,  which  require  removal  of  hydraulic  hoses  and/or  bleeding  of  the 
brakes, require appropriate fitting/line wrenches, safety catch can, and protective eyewear. Other 
than  these  items,  if  unique  or  special  tools  are  required  they  will  be  stated  appropriately  in  the 
installation step. 

        

 

ALWAYS  CONFIRM  WHEEL  FIT  PRIOR  TO  BEGINNING  INSTALLATION  OF  ANY  BRAKE 
SYSTEM  OR  “UPSIZED”  ROTOR  UPGRADE!  In  addition  to  checking  wheel  fitment  (available 
online at 

www.baer.com

), always place the actual corner assembly or a combination of the caliper 

assembly onto the rotor, and into the actual wheel. This procedure will reconfirm proper clearance 
between the caliper and the wheel before proceeding with the actual installation.

  

 

 

Returns  will 

not

  be  accepted  for  systems  that  have  been  partially  or  completely  installed.  Use 

extreme care when checking wheel fitment to prevent any cosmetic damage. 
       

 

ATTENTION:  

Read this before going any  farther! Returns will not be 

accepted  for  ANY  installed  PART  or  ASSEMBLY.    Use  great  care  to 
prevent cosmetic damage when performing wheel fit check. In the event 
that a product must be returned, please contact Baer Customer Service 
for a RMA Number.
