New Brake Pad & Rotor Kit from 1AAuto.com 1aau.to/ia/1ABF...
This video shows you how to install new, quality TRQ brake pads and rotors on your 2011-2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Brake pads wear out over time, much like tires, and need replacing, on average, every 50,000 miles, with variations depending on driving habits and environment. Brake rotors may also need to be replaced if they are warped or grooved. Often, it’s safer and more cost effective to replace pads and rotors at the same time. Squealing or grinding noises, or wheel vibration are all symptoms of worn brakes.
This process should be similar on the following vehicles:

2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee

Your video is extremely easy to follow. Your closeups are very appreciative. Thank you for making my life easier. 🎉

[@NobodyHasThisOne]

Thank you for creating this video. I was able to replace my rear rotors and pads using your step by step video. I ran into an issue trying to remove the caliper pins, (I needed an impact wrench). Fortunately, I was still able to remove the old pads and install the new without too much trouble. Thank you!

[@Sirsk8ordie]

I always put the indicator on the inside pad. The inner pad is always slightly more worn than the outer one.

[@ejc491]

I prefer to loosen the caliper pins BEFORE taking the taking off the caliper bracket.

What happened to the O ring?

[@claudiofornaroMusic]

Important. Open the brake fluid reservoir before you start, or air will come in

Any tips for when the drum parking brake shoes inside the rotor is stuck and won’t let go?

[@CurrentGenGamesWithNick]

Are you using a 3/8 torque wrench flathead to get to the bolts of the brake ?

[@HemiUpkeem]

AVOID grease on your pads

[@phillipporche9238]

It's a lie the back caliper bracket bolts are not 18mm they are torque sockets
