Good Day to All.
My 99 XJ brakes ( no pun intended) caliper retaining bolts on a frequent basis. I replaced the calipers and mounts and installed high performance rotors and pads... and it's still a problem. They grab, rattle and overheat and just plain stink for performance !! :-(
In a beer thirty meeting, it was suggested that I go to an earlier XJ axle with the earlier brakes to eliminate the problem. I am willing to do just that but I am asking for insight and comment from anyone who has done this swap or has knowledge if I'm headed in the right direction ... Or not.
I live in St Thomas, a very aggressive, mountainous area where the brakes are worked hard and long.
Any help with this will be greatly appreciated cause I'm done spending money on this axle.... it's Time for something that works...
Thanks....
