"Camarillo, CA-based Wilwood Engineering has introduced two new big front brake kits for 2005-2016 6-lug Toyota Tacoma trucks. The kits are designed to provide increased braking capacity and long-life durability for all types of highway, towing, hauling, off-road and extreme-duty applications.

New big-bore SL6R six piston calipers are mounted with high-performance street compound BP-10 SmartPads over either 12.88-in. or 14.00-in. diameter directional vane rotors to maximize braking capacity based on wheel size, according to Wilwood. A choice of black or red powder coat or 22 additional caliper color options can be combined with either GT slotted or e-coated SRP series drilled and slotted rotors to suit personal styling preference.

MSRP for the kits starts at $1,741.59"

 

Will the follow it up with a big drum kit for the back.

 

$1750......I'm sure the performance is there but I think that this will be a mod way down the priority list.

 

Actually.. once the front is swapped, take the OEM discs and bolt them up to the rear with a conversion bracket

 

Are there any big drum kits??

 

How many threads how I've seen saying don't do a rear conversion, it'll mess things up

 

Mess what up??

 

From what has been said in other posts. Someone has claimed that there will be uneven brake pressure.

 

I scoured the forums before I joined, so I heard the tales

Whaddya think though, Ant?

 

Thinking BS. People have been doing this for years.

 

Agreed

 

Really??

Then I'm definitely going big brakes all the way around!

 

These guys make a lot of kits for different Toyotas. I'm sure it's fine. https://sosperformance.com/products...-with-parking-brake-slash-tr-dot-ps2-dot-ta16

 

Seen em before, lemme see if they got fronts, then I'm put them on my wish list

They do. I don't expect Cayenne braking (Mom had one, had to feather it or you'd slam), but any upgrade is well worth it

 

I dont know how I feel about larger brakes on the taco. Unless you tow it doesn’t seem to be worth it much. Looks cool though.

 

"I need a race car braking system on my entry level mid-size pickup I daily drive to work and back."

Haha

 

100% Legit here

 

You're missing the point bro.
Some of us have much larger/heavier wheels and tires. Additional weight from armor bumpers/skids/bedracks, not to mention any other gear in the loadout.

This "race car braking system" is just to get me back to the stock level of stopping power(and a little more can't hurt).

But yes, for your bone stock tacoma going to the grocery store.. you'll be fine.

 

How about stop and go city traffic?
