Just when you think a month might go by without needing to spend $$'s on the jeep - a darn rock/nail something hard jammed in the front pad and before I noticed :oops: and got it out a nice deep groove in the disk.

But as luck would have it a had a full set of green stuff pads fresh from ebay in the states. :D The last set of RDA front roters from the GCoast and now I have a Kj that can just about stand on its nose. :shock:

Makes stopping with the trailer less of a will we /won't we pukering experience :lol:

Very good investment for anyone with larger rubber too. Wish I'd done it sooner - might have saved Jeep the cost of the 5 disks sets they put on.

I put my ATZ"s back on, and with some nolathne spacers on my topp ball joints the car is incredibly quiet inside now, so quiet, that all I can now hear is my front discs grinding.... Dang, time for new brakes...


Is this ever going to end????
