I've looked at a lot of brake videos for the Jeep Cherokee. Your video with the detailed shots has been one of the best. Thanks for posting.

A very helpful video. Thank you very much

Great job.! I just wanted to add ( for anyone interested ) that on my 2014 Jeep latitude 3.2; I needed to put the car in “service mode”. There’s a setting in the dashboard display for that. My calipers would not release until I figured that out. In other words, I wasn’t able to compress / retract the piston with the C clamp until it was put in break service mode.

Excelente video. You explain very well.and your English is clear anderstand for those of us Who are in another country.Sorry for my mistake when writing.English is my second language. Thank !!!

About to do this... thanks for the heads up on the (special) sockets

Excellent Video!

I just finished this job. Video was very helpful, thanks! My old pads and rotors (2014 Trailhawk, 85k miles) were still the original parts, and only less than half worn! (More like 1/3 worn, new pad material measures 12mm, my old ones were still above 8 mm!) But... quite some brake vibrations, especially when braking from high speed e.g. going down a mountain road. All gone now, with Bosch rotors and ceramic pads. (But I suspect the new ones will not last almost 100k miles! Well-braking pads usually do not have crazy longevity. My old ML320 was on about its 4th set by 100k miles!)

Excellent video. It helps, Thanks. Strange choice of torx bits on the front and rear of this thing. Just an excuse to buy more tools :)

Nice nice video and thanks

Nice video! Process for my 2017 trailhawk is pretty much the same! Except there is another different shaped spring clip for the bottom of the pad as well as the one you showed on the top!

I wish all the videos I need were as well done as this one!

This was super helpful, thank you. I have a 2019 Cherokee Trailhawk and was wondering if you have any input on driving it in Auto vs. Sport as well as Manual vs. Automatic. I've been getting mixed answers from everyone but you seem to know your Jeep pretty well!

I have used OE spec ATE parts. Disc part no 428191 pad set no 605689. The discs come with the rotor retaining screws(2 per disc) and the pads come with caliper guide clips , pad clips and spreader springs. The pads have anti-squeal pads ready bonded to them. Excellent OE quality not the cheapest , but I do not take any chances with brake parts.

Nice! I just did a similar job for a friend(posted video) I had to do all four wheel bearings it had 96k miles

Great video thank you! Question I have a 17 Jeep 4x4 do you know if this would be the same process?

Great video, I've watched pretty much all of the videos pertaining to this subject and yours is by far the most helpful and detailed. I'm attempting to replace the front rotors and pads on my 2016 Cherokee Trailhawk and am having alot of issues with installing the new pads. For some reason the bottom of pad will slip right in however the top of the pad (with that spring clip installed) does NOT want to snap in. Any ideas on what could be the problem? Thanks!

great video good detail, do you have one for the rear job?

Can I rethread one of my routers on a jeep Cherokee latitude 2.4 2017

What torque wrench you using? I bought 4 Tekton torque wrenches last fall. They are amazing! If you ever need a different/another one, consider checking them out. I bought mine off ebay/amazon, but I think Lowes and Home Depot carry them as well. The numbers are laser perfect, the adjustment is smooth, and the 'click' is beyond imagination. I got to use 'the big one' last week to torque the wheels on the Stingray (got it aligned and front tires mounted on the rims. I take the wheels on/off the cars myself as I don't trust the shops around here). When we went to Black Hills I took it with along with a deep 3/4" impact socket so I could double check things while on our trip. Compared to the $20 Harbor Freight's and the $150+ torques, these Tektons can't be beat! Great video, thanks for sharing!

They make a specially coated rotor for the Northeast salt and magnesium.

Would you happen to know the size of the caliper pin head?

Did you put synthetic grease in the the sliding bolts?

My OEM front rotors warped big time -- sounded like a pod racer from Star Wars when you hit the brakes. I replaced the front brake pads and rotors this past September with the help of you guide. In the past month I've started to get some vibration in the steering wheel and a little in the brake pedal when braking ONLY at high speeds (e.g., getting off the interstate). Any advice? I hope I did not install wrong. Is it possible that the rear brakes/rotors could be causing this? They are still original (2015 KL with 70K miles)

I have done everything under the sun to these brakes and they still squeak. Maybe they need more time to brake in? They are also getting what feels like hotter than most cars I have worked on. I used element 3 brakes from raysbestos. Any thoughts would be super helpful.

Hello Carguy-11. Do you know who sells a BREMBO mounting bracket kit for this 2015 jeep?

Have you ever changed the anti-freeze yet on your Trailhawk? I'm looking for some tips, thankx.

Do the bracket bolts need to be replaced or can they be reused? I have read in some forums that the bolts need to be replaced if you remove the bracket to replace the rotor

Carguy11, have you replaced your 2015 Trailhawk Jeep head lights due to dim standard original head lights? if you did do you have a video? 😊

2017 jeep Cherokee trailhawk L plus. 37,000 miles. My left front tire went flat. When i took off the lug nuts, I still could not get the tire off. It looks like a bigger nut is in the center but I could be wrong. The tire won't budge. Wht am I doing wrong? Anybody?

Is that the first time you changed the brakes at 60,000. I live in Pittsburgh area and was wondering if that’s normal milage for JEEP brakes?

do you add thread locker to the caliper bolts?

Good to know, thanks for sharing this. My '15 is so far fine, but I'm discovering more and more things that the 'extended warranty' that I bought doesn't cover. Like brakes. Bumper to bumper my butt...

Great video . i have. A 2015 jeep Cherokee latitude. And i watch your video for instructions when i change my rotors. I do have a question? Why do you have wheel spacers? Is that specific for jeep trail hawk editions? And if so. Do you think i can add that on my latitude? Im purchasing your rim style for my jeep. I like the trail hawk editions alot. Thanks bud. Coffeel from Philly area

I’m surprised that your transmission hasn’t failed and is working perfectly, I have a 2016 Cherokee and it has failed me 2 times already and it keeps under 2,000revs

Hey I replaced front rotors still pulsing any ideas??

Carguy11: Good video. However, Bosch BC1709 is the wrong part number for the dual piston brakes. It should be BC1843. Check the Bosch website.

I did not see you release the purge valve on the caliper. Before compressing the pistons it's always better to open the purge valve, otherwise you can bust the master cylinder!

It looks like that wheel bearing bolt isn't tighted properly. You can see the dents from the last time it was replaced but the mechanic forgot to do new to fit the axel.

Never remove the 14mm bolts to the slide pins 😂😂😂😂😂 use the 18mm bracket bolts. Then slide off the pins. Newbie

Did didnt even clean your rust jack 😂😂😂 you sir should not being doing brake jobs 😂
