Well done, video is spot on and no BS!! The JL/JT set up is much better than the JK’s, especially the rear calipers…the JK’s has much smaller rear pads that only last 25-30k miles. This dual piston caliper set up is a huge upgrade!!

Need to see a closeup of the clips with the return spring. The pads aren’t pushing away from the rotor. Something isn’t right here.

Is it the same process for the rear pads/rotors?
@AStanton19666 ай бұрын
Because of the E brake it's a different animal. I've seen on other Jeeps where it's required to go into the Uconnect menu and click on "brake service" before doing any work.

Similar, same, or different procedure for the rear pads/rotors ??? Thanks for this video, Rob excellent host/installer, as usual...

I was wondering the same thing. On some vehicles you need a special tool to turn the rear caliper pistons back in. 🤷🏻♂️

Great video thanks! But when did rotors become a ware item like pads. since I got my JL almost every pad kit has rotors. Even the JK only had upgraded replacment rotors, now everyone is selling more rotors than pads.

Great video as always Rob! When do I need replace the rotors as opposed to just the brake pads.
@Quadratec2 ай бұрын
A number of factors come in to play to indicate when it's time to replace your brake rotors. If you noticed squealing or grinding noises when braking, or the rotors have developed deep groves, or it's taking more distance and time to stop, it could be an indication to replace your rotor.

When torqued to 148 the bottom bolt actually touched the rotor and caused damage. When trying to back it out the bolt broke. Great video but the torque must be incorrect.

I have the same problem as others that brake pads don’t push away from the rotors. Can you show real good close up of the brake pads and clips?

Curious, I don’t like the amount of brake dust the OEN pads give off, is there another pad that has or give the same thickness and stopping power without or with minimal brake dust? Like maybe a ceramic brake pads? I’ve used similar ones for a different vehicle by STOPTECH, they were great, but I now have a Jeep and don’t know if they make them for Jeeps.

Yes, not NOT over torque the retaining screw, I don't put them back in myself, as they are not necessary.
@EcuChris Жыл бұрын
Why the heck did Jeep decide to use a Torx head on these screws? I've never seen a hand impact screwdriver with a Torx head attachment (at the hardware store anyway). Definitely use a coating of anti seize if ya'll decide to put these back on. You will thank yourself later.

Is there any substantial difference between the process here and for a 2010 JK Rubicon? Rear rotors and pads a similar process? Thanks for the great videos?
@attnielthomas7856 Жыл бұрын
Happy New Year in advance. JKs use small clips on each stud to hold the rotor in place while the JL uses a screw. Otherwise it seems mostly the same.

How about bleeding the system after all is done?
@pilot_gibbs2159 Жыл бұрын
If I’m not mistaken he used a c clamp and forced the caliper back without the need to open the bleed valve on the back to relieve pressure. If you open the bleed valve I believe this allows air inside the lines and then you would need to bleed the system to ensure there was no air. He basically forced the caliper back into position instead of moving it back the easy way.

Why are all these youtube videos front only? I need the torque specs for the back and they're smaller bolts, therefore less torque.

26 FT-LB with 10mm socket and 74 FT-LB on the larger bolts with 18mm socket. This is on my 392 XR so if your bolts take a different socket size, these torque specs are not for yours.
