    I just put the power stop kit with stainless brake lines on my LJ she'll put you in the windshield with 33's now. I used an air bleeder to bleed the brakes, with the key on - don't forget to do that! Great upgrade

      Yeah mine seems to be getting better and better the more I drive it.

    Nice work. In my experience the OEM brakes were sub-par with the factory 245/75-16s. After I went to 35x12.50s they were downright scary. Upgrading is the best money I've spent on my LJ.

      They feel great on mine right now and it stops just as good as my Ram. We'll see once it gets tires.

    How ya feeling after the gallon of brake cleaner you drenched those brakes in, in a closed garage? 🤣 The acetone, toluene, and heptane give you a lil buzz after prolonged, hotboxed exposure? 😜

    I would have painted the calipers so they dont rust....

      the calipers are plated and won't rust
