Upgrade Your 1st Gen Toyota Tacoma Brakes with Big Brake Kits

If you tow heavy loads, run oversized tires, or push your Tacoma hard off-road, the stock brake setup may not be enough. Our big brake upgrade kits are built for 6-lug 1995-2004 Tacomas and give you a serious boost in stopping power. Two standout options include:

These kits transform how your truck handles sudden stops, especially when it matters most on steep terrain or at highway speeds.

Rear Disc Brake Conversion for Toyota Tacoma 1st Gen (1995-2004) Brakes

Many first gen Tacomas came from the factory with rear drum brakes, and swapping to rear discs is one of the most impactful upgrades you can make. Our rear disc brake conversion kit fits 6-lug 1995-2004 Tacomas and arrives complete and ready to bolt on. Key advantages of this conversion include:

  • Better heat management compared to drum brake setups, which reduces fade on long descents
  • Easier pad inspection and replacement versus drum brake service

This kit uses a 3/8-inch CNC laser cut caliper bracket with grade 10.9 bolts for a strong, clean fit that improves balance across all four corners and gives the truck a more confident feel when decelerating on uneven terrain.

Performance Rotors Built for the 1st Gen Tacoma

Stock rotors work fine for light use, but enthusiasts and off-roaders need more. Our cross drilled and slotted rotors are available for both 2WD and 4WD first gen Tacomas, as well as PreRunner models. The cross drilled holes help dissipate heat faster, while the slots clear gas and debris from the rotor surface to keep braking consistent lap after lap or trail after trail.

These rotors work with your existing caliper setup, making them an easy win for anyone who wants better brake feel without doing a full system overhaul. For 4WD and PreRunner builds, we stock the fitment-specific version so you get the right rotor every time.

Stainless Steel Brake Lines for Toyota Tacoma 1st Gen (1995-2004) Brakes

Our DOT-rated stainless steel braided brake lines eliminate the spongy pedal feel that comes with rubber lines and are compatible with all brake fluid types. We carry plus-3-inch and plus-6-inch extended options for both 5-lug and 6-lug first gen Tacomas, plus a dedicated Tacoma to Tundra kit. Options available include:

A fresh set of stainless lines is one of the easiest and most noticeable brake upgrades you can do on any first gen Tacoma, and the extended-length options mean your suspension travel will not pull the lines tight.

We Carry OEM and Aftermarket Brake Parts for 1st Gen Tacomas

Beyond the performance upgrades, we also stock OEM Toyota brake parts so you can restore your first gen Tacoma back to factory specs when needed. That includes OEM-spec replacement brake drums for 1995-2004 Tacomas, sourced directly from Toyota's supply chain for exact fitment and durability.
