Replacing Brakes and Roters
 
Jeep TJ 97 2.5L

I have to replace my brakes. So, I started to look around, I saw
advertisements for Hawks HPS brake Pads, Power slot brakes pads and the
list goes on.

I don't have that much experience in what's a good rotor or what's
current in the latest brake pads. Anyone want to share their
experiences? What to buy, etc=3F


Thanks

Hi Denis,
Unless you're into slalom, road type racing where you need the
caliper's complete release of pads via using four or six pistons, and
vented rotors, like an old Sixties Shelby Mustang, then give you local
parts store a try, they usually carry a name brand with life time
guarantee, along with there own Chinese junk. Look at the different
quality performance levels Raybestos carries:

embarrass you.

Re: Replacing Brakes and Roters
 
I would recommend ceramic pads for a TJ. I have used the Bosch ceramic pads
with good results. Part number: RBC477. I used Bosch because that was the
brand available in stock at my local auto parts store. Lifetime guarantee.
If they start squeaking (mine never did) or wear out, just return them with
the original receipt.

I would prefer pads made in the USA, and I think the Raybestos pads are, but
I am not sure. On the Raybestos link below are the Raybestos Quiet Stop,
ceramic pads which would also be an excellent choice.

Ceramic pads generally are quieter, with less chance of squeaking, less
brake dust, and put less wear on the rotors.

On this general subject, which "upgraded" rotors & pads (or rotors, pads, &
calipers) give better braking performance? With my 3.07 gearing and 31's, I
use my brakes quite a bit off road and would appreciate more stopping power.
I have a 00 Sport, Auto, but I think the question similar to the original

I used the ones Kolak suggested (and sells) (I think he reads this group but
I know he is on the ramjw listserv) http://www.off-road.com/jeep/jeeplists.htm

Stillen rotors and Raybestos Carbon Metalic pads.

Given my style of driving (agressive) they have held up remarkably well.

Thing about stopping power is if you use a larger caliper piston you need
a larger master cyl to provide the fluid. There is only so much friction
you can get out of pads/rotors without using ones that have to be replaced
every year because they eat themselves.

Work fine. But we don't get that much winter in Oklahoma.
I have had them to Colorado Springs in the deep cold and they
worked just like brakes are supposed to. Somtimes a bit grabby
when I first start out and it's humid or just rained. But draggin
the brakes a few yards (to warm them a bit) clears it up.

The key to good brakes is bedding them in properly. The howto
comes with most discs. I think it's also posted on the stillen
website.

Re: Replacing Brakes and Roters
 
Slalom, only on skis.

I'm just looking for good quality rotors and pads. performance, noise,
etc.

Just look at the site, plug in 1997 Jeep Truck. And there's actually a
specific model for me; TJ (Canada). First time I see this. Anyway, they
got no rotors. Any other suggestions?

Re: Replacing Brakes and Roters
 
Slalom, only on skis.

I'm just looking for good quality rotors and pads. performance, noise,
etc.

Just look at the site, plug in 1997 Jeep Truck. And there's actually a
specific model for me; TJ (Canada). First time I see this. Anyway, they
got no rotors. Any other suggestions?
