Todd over at Baer read the thread and sent me these additions:
Quote:
Frank at Prodigy is correct, we specifically sized the housing ends to allow the most compact installation possible and it configured to be a match for the narrowest possible rear housings.
Someone asked about wheel fit; the Baer unit is designed specifically to allow use with modern alloy road wheels.
The wheel index (of the 4140 drive plate) on the prototype is actually .500” longer than production versions. All will be set up for the 2.410” OD (standard on early Mustang). Centering rings will then be provided so we are sure to be able to accommodate the widest cross section of wheels.
Also, something I forgot to mention and you may not have noticed on the prototype is the exciter ring for ABS. This task is completed for the Ford applications and the GM versions will be available before release in December.
Anyone currently providing custom axles will be able to provide axles. Baer will only offer a 31 or 35 spline versions initially.
Production parts will be hard coated and steel components plated.
ARP studs .500” x 20 will be standard.
Final pricing will be completed immediately following SEMA (possibly earlier).
Nothing will be shipped earlier than mid December. Orders will be taken as soon as pricing is finalized and they will then be shipped in the order received. Existing orders
Once prices are set there will be new part numbers for rear systems that feature the Tracker integrated with the brake system. These will be priced moderately less than retrofit packages because there are some overlapping components. Initially offerings will include;
• PRO+ and EXTREME+ systems with integrated Baer Tracker Floating Hub.
• Upgrade packages compatible with existing Baer PRO+ or EXTREME+ systems. These will be fully compatible with Baer's current Torino billet aluminum backing plate.
• Other Ford variations, Dana or 10 or 12-bolt GM will need to purchase separate installation package with backing plate and attendant hardware.
