What’s Stopping You?

 

***NOTE: Any aftermarket lift kit or suspension modifications that alter the knuckles may make these brakes incompatible with your truck. Returns of kits due to modified suspensions will be subject to a 15% restocking fee. ***

 

Fitting larger tires, lift kits, adding weight in the form of special equipment and increased engine power all translates to much higher demands on your vehicles’ brakes – both in terms of requiring more brake torque and generating more heat. Whether you are overlanding, highway driving or rock crawling, the Alcon Toyota Tacoma front brake upgrade provides more stopping power, eliminates fade and provides precise control in all situations making your rig safer and more fun to drive.

ASSOCIATED PRESS RELEASE:

Alcon, a global leader in the design, development and manufacture of brakes for motorsport, offroad, military, and NGO Defense brakes has released a new brake upgrade for the Toyota Tacoma Gen3. (2016 on Gen 3 Toyota Tacoma) The kit is suitable for both onroad and off-road use.

Alconkits is offering a front brake upgrade including calipers, rotors, pads, brackets, and brake lines.

The upgrade is designed with the adventurer in mind. After a long weekend of trail riding and camping with friends, Alcon’s new Tacoma brake upgrade is ready to keep you, your family and your rig safe while traveling down the mountain back to regular life. With the added weight of aftermarket equipment and gear all loaded in your rig along with the need to control your speed coming down steep descents, the limitations of the stock braking system will be revealed. The increase in thermal capacity of the Alcon upgrade over stock system means it can handle heavier and longer braking to provide you with the stopping power when it matters most.

Extensively tested, the kit has shown significant gains over factory brakes

  • 38% reduction in brake temp increase
  • 47% reduction in pad work rates (leading to better braking and longer life)
  • 14% decrease in pedal effort.

The calipers included feature ductile iron housings for maximum strength and durability, plus stiffness and resistance to impact and fatigue. They are coated in epoxy acrylic paint over an acid zinc finish for maximum corrosion resistance and protection. All calipers come with advance high temp seals around each piston for protection from high temperatures and from road grime and debris.

This system offers significantly more thermal capacity meaning you can brake harder and longer without the fear of brake fade. The pads offer increased surface area for more braking and longer service life to compliment the upgraded calipers and rotors.

The system install is quick and simple.

It fits nicely under many 17 inch and larger aftermarket wheels including Method MR701 17x8.5", Method MR305 ET0 17 x 8.5", AEV Salta XR 17 x 8.5" and BRAID winrace T 17 x 7.5"

Big Brake Kit common questions

Installation

What tools do I need to install?

Our brake kits require common hand tools for installation. You will need a torque wrench, brake fluid (2 pints), and loctite.

What if I run into issues while installing?

We pride ourself in expert advice. You can call or text us at 630-360-2548 for expert technical and installation advice.

Are any other modifications required?

For OEM installations where wider rotors are fitted, you should expect to remove or trim the rotor dust/heat shield. This often interferes with larger rotors but is no longer needed due to our upgraded components.

Will I need a new Master Cylinder

No. All of our brake kits are designed specifically to work with the hydraulic ratio of your stock master cylinder

Do I need wheel spacers

We provide a fitment template for you to check clearance in advance. In some cases a small spacer may be required and we provide those when we are sure they are needed.

Are brake pads included?

Yes. We include the appropriate brake pads for all our brake kits. In some cases we offer multiple compounds for you to customize your experience. We stock a wide variety of pads for Alcon Brake kits here.

Break In questions

Do I need to brake in new rotors/pads?

Yes! We highly recommend following our brake pad/rotor bed in process. This ensures that an even layer of pad material is deposited on the rotor to eliminate shudder, increase rotor life, and to heat temper the new rotors for longer life.

What about noise and dust?

Noise and dust are related to the brake pad compound. Higher temp pads have more metallic composition and will therefore increase potential noise and dust the more aggressive the pad. For squealing issues we recommended loosening the caliper and re tightening it. This will sometimes change the caliper "frequency". Additionally "sticky shims" or our titanium pad shims will reduce noise.

Operational Questions

Is this compatible with my ABS?

Yes! We test our brakes to ensure they are fully compatible with your stock ABS on all models we release.

How long do they last?

Lifetime of components is massively variable based on how they are used. High dust/dirt/salt environments will wear seals out more quickly. Heavy Duty or Track use will also affect rotor and pad life.

What is the warranty?

We support the manufacturers 12 month/12000 mile warranty against factory defects and material issues. You can find more details here.
