Overview
Baer Brakes 4011001DS-2 is a Desert Sand 6T front brake kit for the 2024–2025 Toyota Tacoma. It uses a six-piston, fixed direct-mount caliper and a 1-piece slotted, zinc-plated vented rotor, and the system is set up for the D1247 pad type.
The rotors are purpose cast from premium materials and carry a curved vane pattern that supports cooling, steady braking and reduced fade. Brackets, braided hoses and hardware come in the box. The hoses suit stock-height trucks, and lifted trucks may need longer hoses.
Key features
- Six-piston 6T caliper for front disc braking
- Staggered pistons designed to limit uneven pad wear
- Dual seals for dust, weather and pressure protection
- Caliper body CNC machined from US-sourced forged or billet aluminum, powder coated
- Pistons, abutments and noise suppression clips are stainless steel
- Slotted and zinc-plated 1-piece vented rotor with 13.586 inch outside diameter
- Caliper made in Phoenix, Arizona
Wheel clearance basics
Wheel clearance depends on more than wheel diameter. Offset, backspacing and tire width all change how close the wheel comes to the caliper and the inner barrel. A wheel that clears the brakes at one offset may rub at another, so the fit check should cover the whole assembly rather than diameter alone.
Lifted trucks change clearance further because suspension geometry and tire size shift the wheel position. Plan for brake hose length and suspension movement when the setup changes. Re-check clearance after any change to tires, spacers or suspension, and again after the first drives.
- Measure caliper clearance with the wheel mounted and turned to full lock
- Check tire size against the range recommended for the vehicle
- Re-check fit after changing spacers or suspension height

Vehicle fitment
It fits the 2024–2025 Toyota Tacoma on the front axle.
Only the 2024–2025 Tacoma is named; other model years and Toyota models are not covered by this list. Baer warns it cannot promise fit on each wheel brand or style, and the O185M template is the reference. Confirm your vehicle’s year, model and trim before ordering.
Installation notes
Lifted Tacomas may need hoses longer than the stock-height set in this kit. Check wheel clearance using the O185M template against the 17-inch or larger wheel you plan to run. Hydraulic brake lines are involved, so a qualified technician should handle the work.
What’s included
Included: the Desert Sand 6T caliper, 1-piece slotted and zinc-plated rotor, all mounting brackets, braided hoses and hardware.
Not included: wheels; the kit is sized for wheels of 17 inch or larger.
