Overview
The Baer Brakes 4011003R-2 is a red 6T front brake kit for the 2022-2025 Toyota Tundra. It is a 5 inch kit built around a 1-piece slotted and zinc-plated rotor and a six-piston caliper finished in red, sold as a complete front package.
The rotor uses a curved vane design, which Baer says supports cooling, consistent braking and reduced brake fade. Brake pads are the D1247 type, and the T compliant dust and weather seals are listed among the features.
Key features
- Red powder coated finish on the six-piston caliper
- Fixed, direct mount caliper with six pistons
- Caliper machined by CNC from forged or billet aluminum sourced in the US
- Stainless pistons, abutments and noise suppression clips
- Staggered piston arrangement that helps pad wear stay even
- Dual seals against dust, weather and pressure
- Slotted, zinc-plated, vented one-piece rotor measuring 13.586 inch across
- Mounting brackets, braided hoses and hardware included
Caring for a powder coated caliper
A powder coated caliper resists everyday road grime, but the finish still needs routine attention. Brake dust is abrasive and can build up around the caliper body, so rinse the assembly during wheel cleaning instead of letting dust bake on through hot stops. Heat and chemical overspray can discolor a coating over time, so keep degreasers and brake cleaners away from the finish when working on the caliper.
Inspection is worth doing at each wheel removal. Look for chips where stones hit the caliper, check that slide pins move freely, and make sure the dust boot is seated. A chipped area left alone can spread, so address it before corrosion starts. Keep the rotor surface clean as well, since brake dust on the rotor affects pad contact.
- Rinse dust off with water and mild soap
- Avoid abrasive pads and harsh solvents on the finish
- Inspect pins and boots at each wheel removal
- Look for chips near the leading edge of the caliper

Vehicle fitment
The red kit fits the 2022-2025 Toyota Tundra on the front axle. It does not cover rear axles or other Toyota trucks.
Earlier Tundra model years and other Toyota models are outside its fit range. Match your year, model and trim to the range before buying.
Installation notes
Hoses included are for stock height trucks, and lifted trucks may need longer lines, so check ride height first. The kit is designed for 17 inch or larger wheels; compare the O185M template with your wheel because Baer cannot promise fit across every wheel design.
Hydraulic brake work calls for a qualified installer who can bleed the system and confirm firm pedal travel.
What’s included
It includes the 6T caliper, the 1-piece rotor, mounting brackets, braided hoses and hardware.
Not included: Wheels, which need to be at least 17 inches, plus tires.
