Wagner Brake SX976 front brake pad for the 2005-2023 Toyota Tacoma and other vehicles is built for fleets and for vehicles driven hard, with frequent stopping, gear hauling or heavy loads. It is sold as a Wagner Brake disc brake pad set for the front axle.
- Wagner SevereDuty line: designed and tested for fleets, police-pursuit use and demanding conditions
- Semi-metallic carbon-based friction material engineered in-house for long braking life
- OE-style on-vehicle testing under extreme heat, frequent stopping and heavy loads
- OE-style shims, slots and chamfers
- Wagner OE25 zero-copper friction formulation
Squealing or grinding when you brake, a pull to one side or pads worn thin can all mean the front pads are due. Before you replace them, rule out a sticking caliper or a worn rotor, since either one can produce a pull or noise on its own. The vehicle takes one set, fitted at the front axle.
For Tacoma brake pads covering 2005-2023, this is a direct-fit replacement, and the vehicles it fits also include the 2003-2023 Toyota 4Runner and the 2001-2006 Toyota Tundra.
