Hey Guys, I'm new to posting on , but I've been on Jeepforum for well over a year.
I plan on moving some of my more informative posts here over the next little while because
I'm tired of the JF atmosphere (long story short: I can't deal with their moderators).
Those comments aside,here are some pics of my Brake install. I had all the parts installed
last summer. The front kit is a 12" slotted rotor with a two piston caliper. The kit came with
SS brake lines, AND I had the front rotors cryo treated (more on that later). You can get
more info on the kit at www.go.jeep-xj.info/HowtoFordBAdiscs1.htm. Along with the brakes,
I also had some addco F+R swaybars installed along with the brakes.
here's what the calipers looked like out-of-the-box
a look at the rotors. the teraflex rotos like similar in diameter, but they have
a much smaller contact surface compared to the front rotors. You caan also
see the front rotors are cryo- treated... one year later and the front rotors
look brand newwhile the rear teraflex rotors are rusted (the hats rusted in
the first week)
painted the teraflex calipers
