Re: 2001 TJ rear break squeak, abrupt breaking
Since I had the rear disks installed on my 98 TJ I have the same thing on wet
mornings. Could be heavy dew, light rain, even thick fog and its enough moisture to
set them off. Believe me, the whole area knows when I drive the Jeep to work on
those mornings as I have 2 stop signs and one slow turn - by the time I have gone
thru the three of those (6 blocks maybe) there is no more squeaking for the rest of
the commute to work. If its a heavy rain, no squeaking. Go figure.
I am not sure on the grabbing - I have not had this happen that I recall, on the
other hand, I dont have factory disks either.

Re: 2001 TJ rear break squeak, abrupt breaking
Next time you have the rear wheels off, take a file or rasp and put a
slight camfer on the front edge of each shoe. About 1/8 inch is plenty.
A sharp leading edge can cause some weird noises and such.
