The Big Claw kit includes a pair of larger than stock diameter rotors (up to 2 inches larger on some applications) that are purpose cast with directional cooling vanes, along with a pair of new caliper relocation brackets to move the calipers outward to accommodate the larger rotors while maintaining OE Pad and hardware fitment. Independent third-party testing showed up to a 49% gain in braking effectiveness due to the increased brake torque and leverage from the larger diameter rotors, along with as much as a 200-degree reduction in brake rotor temperatures vs OE in extreme conditions due in part to the curved vane design. Together, these equal improved stopping distances, reduced brake fade and enhanced braking confidence all at a fraction of the cost of other leading replacement kits. *** Because of the abundance of wheel companies and styles, it is impossible for Baer to guarantee the fit of the Big Claw rotors into a specific wheel. To verify fitment, we recommend using the template specific to the system you are interested in and compare it to the wheel of choice, including spare tire\/wheel.***\nFits 1999-18 GM 1500 2\/4wd Trucks \u0026amp; 2007-18 GM 1500 2\/4\/AWD SUV's\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOversized Rotors Deliver Greater Brake Torque and Leverage for Improved Stopping Power (Use Template Below to Verify Wheel Fitment including Spare Tire\/Wheel)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNEW, OE-Style Brackets Reposition the Caliper for Larger Rotors While Maintaining OE Pad and Hardware Compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrilliant Zinc-Plated Finish Resists Rust and Corrosion While Enhancing Visual Appeal Behind Open-Spoke Wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCross-Drilled and Slotted Friction Surface Helps Vent Dust and Gases for a More Consistent Pedal Feel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSimple, Direct Bolt-on System, No Bleeding of the Brakes Required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUpgrade the rear braking performance of your GM 1500 with the Baer Brakes Big Claw Performance Rear Rotor Kit, Part Number BAE2302023. Designed for 1999-2018 GM 1500 two-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive trucks, along with 2007-2018 GM 1500 two-wheel-drive, four-wheel-drive, and all-wheel-drive SUVs, this direct bolt-on system increases brake torque and leverage by using larger-than-stock rotors. The kit is engineered to improve stopping performance, reduce brake fade, and maintain compatibility with original-equipment brake pads and hardware.\u003cbr\u003eThe Big Claw kit includes a pair of purpose-cast rotors with directional cooling vanes and new OE-style caliper relocation brackets. The brackets move the factory calipers outward to accommodate the larger rotors without requiring replacement pads or hardware. Independent third-party testing reported up to a 49% improvement in braking effectiveness and rotor temperature reductions of as much as 200 degrees Fahrenheit compared with OE components under extreme conditions. Cross-drilled and slotted friction surfaces help release dust and gases, supporting consistent pedal feel during demanding driving.\u003cbr\u003eA brilliant zinc-plated finish helps resist rust and corrosion while providing a clean appearance behind open-spoke wheels. Installation uses a simple, direct bolt-on design and does not require brake bleeding. Because wheel designs and clearances vary, Baer Brakes cannot guarantee fitment with every wheel. Use the application-specific template to verify clearance with your selected wheels, including the spare tire and wheel, before installation. Professional installation is recommended, and all components should be inspected for proper clearance and operation before driving.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eOversized rotors provide greater brake torque and leverage for improved stopping power; use the application template to verify wheel and spare tire fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eOE-style caliper relocation brackets accommodate the larger rotors while maintaining original-equipment pad and hardware compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eBrilliant zinc-plated finish helps resist rust and corrosion while enhancing the appearance behind open-spoke wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eCross-drilled and slotted friction surfaces help vent dust and gases for more consistent pedal feel\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDirectional cooling vanes support improved heat management during demanding braking\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDirect bolt-on installation requires no brake bleeding\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Baer Brakes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67590375309628,"sku":"bae2302023","price":699.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1865\/9007\/files\/ce4d16f1763fe1c392635b6b9ea29983L.jpg?v=1790569935","url":"https:\/\/necycleshop.com\/products\/baer-brakes-99-18-gm-1500-2-4wd-trucks-big-claw-performance-rear-rotors","provider":"NE Cycle Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
