My rear brakes are warped. I need to replace the rotors and pads. Can any of you guys give me suggestions as to some good after market replacements?

Thanks.


Tom

Considering the weight of rotors I think you could save shipping by buying close to where you live.

NAPA Ultra Premiums. Spend the extra money for the good ones and you won't regret it.

NAPA= store and parts line name. Raybestos= brake pads and rotors brand name.

Check your year. I arbitrarily picked 2005.

We all know about the brakes rubbing when in reverse and turning left issue? I have had the stealership replace my rear brakes twice already and now that my warranty is up I am still having the issue. Has anybody had this issue that has replaced there factory setup with some aftermarket parts? Did it help eliminate the problem or is it a lifetime Liberty issue?

That's a new one and not a common issue at all.Did you have the rear calipers replaced? They have a TSB for the rear brakes,something about those plastic pistons in the OEM calipers.If your brakes rub when turning left you got other issues that are not brake related.

I have a friend who has a friend that is a mechanic for jeep. He said he see's it all the time...?
I was told that when brakeing in reverse with the wheel at hard left that it was the deflection of the caliper touch the rotor :shock: Sounds like something major to me but I always got the same answer from them "that its not a big deal"? Hard to tell what they really know down at the old dealership! :banghead:

Oh a "friend of a friend" story :roll: .

If you have that problem the hub bearings are shot(or flange is bent but would do it all the time) or the lugnuts/caliper mount bolts are loose.That mount should not deflect any without the brakes applied,and it would take more system PSI then a vacuum assist brake system can produce to make that mount deflect when the brakes are applied,hydroboost maybe on a setup not made for hydroboost but highly doubt it.The rotor hat will deflect before that mount will

I am planning on replacing the rear rotors when I get to 50,000 miles, about 7500 to go. Maybe that will take car of the problem... :rockon:
