@@AutoEdits finally got to this part of my Jeep upgrade. Ordered the big brake conversion kit you have on here and to my disappointment, the packaging was not the same, very cheap and just thrown together 😢. Regardless of that I’m super stoked to get these onto my JK over the weekend. Thank you soo much for these videos, not only are they informative, but they are entertaining as well, I can’t believe so many years have passed since you started this channel. Thank you.

The three things I’d like to add is 1. Clean the heck out of your new rotors with brake cleaner. The manufacturer puts oil on them to prevent them from rusting during freight. 2. Yes, brake fluid is one of the worst fluids. It’s actually corrosive and will eat the paint off your fender or whatever it gets on. 3. Make sure when bleeding brakes, always start farthest from the master cylinder. So rear passenger, rear driver, front passenger, and front driver in that order. Great video as always Jason! Seems like a really good upgrade, especially being able to lock up your 38” Milestar Patagonia M/Ts!! I have a little bit of a hard time locking up my 35s with four wheel disk brakes on my YJ.

All good suggestions! It's less important now that newer vehicles have independent lines from the stability management pump but a good procedure to follow. I would recommend getting the Z36 pads and rotors for that YJ stat!

On these particular rotors they are good to go out of the box, no brake clean needed. That said... if you get oils/grease from your fingers on the rotors it is a great idea to keep them as clean as possible.

I have read on many Jeep FB groups that cross drilled and slotted rotors are really bad if your off-roading your Jeep, all the dust, dirt, sand gets in the holes and grooves and destroys the pads. Make sense. Crossed drilled and slotted rotors seem fine for the everyday Jeep on the road that doesn’t see any off-roading.

Hi Jason. Another great video! I've always heard that you DON'T want drilled and slotted rotors when driving off road, because they clog up with mud and dirt, negating their cooing effect and trapping gritty material against your brake pads, which can make them wear faster. Have you noticed them getting clogged with mud? Also, have you considered a package that includes a bigger booster and master cylinder, such as the Mopar Big Brake Kit? That's where your real stopping power comes from, isn't it?

I don't do enough mud driving for that to be a concern. I have friends back east that do a bunch of mud wheeling on this setup with good results. I totally understand why that would be a concern but haven't had a problem. I drove through miles of mud in Mexico with the setup on my truck and had no issues. I didn't want to change the master cylinder on the Jeep because that's a much bigger job and the performance I get from this setup is phenomenal. Does that hit all the topics?!

I have noticed on previous vehicles that the rear cross drilled and slotted rotors will make a very slight "whirring" sound when stopping because they are not center vented and air stays in the drilled holes during operation. I don't notice that on the Jeep or truck but that might be because I have mud terrain tires that make a bit extra noise... so no I don't have any concerns with them and have thousands of happy miles with them!

Jason is the actual pad size different? The reason I'm asking is when you were doing the close up of the rear rotor it looks like there is a lot of unused rotor left (19:30). I understand that a larger rotor will be able to dissipate more heat but the contact area I would say is more important (just my opinion of course :-) ).
@AutoEdits
@AutoEdits 5 жыл бұрын
One of the things I like about this kit is that it uses the stock size pads and gains leverage by using larger rotors and caliper brackets that adapt factory style components to get more stopping power. This is helpful to those that don't want to change master cylinder or any other parts of the stock system. I've been thrilled with the results so far.

Hey Jason. Great video once again. Great detail and instruction. I have a 2017 Rubicon JK 4-door and was considering the PowerStop Big brake kit but several friends have suggested going with a 2-piston system. Currently run 35’s with a 3.5” lift. Planning on a 4” lift with 37’s. Thoughts on a 2-piston vs this one?
@AutoEdits
@AutoEdits 3 жыл бұрын
Being honest... I feel the best "bang for the buck" upgrade is still just the Z36 pads and drilled and slotted rotors. I ran that for years with 37" tires and was very happy. The big brake kit is much more expensive and does offer noticeable performance improvement but not as much as that initial upgrade to the Z36 pads. I don't consider going with the dual pistons just because of how the stock master cylinders aren't designed for that. Should consider making that change as well if you are going that way.

Just got a (new to me) JK with 35” and was looking for something to help it stop better. The stock ones work but they don’t stop on a dime. Are the calibers in this kit the same size as stock? I ask cause I see they sell the kit with and without them. I’d love to save money and just buy the pads and rotors kit.

Hey Jason. I placed my order for these the other day (went with the extended brake lines for some future proofing). I'm only on 35s, but I never liked the way my JKUR braked. It always felt like it was at it's limit, but then again I'm used to cars with 4-6 piston fixed calipers up front, so I forgot what normal brakes are supposed to feel like. I hope these at least help bridge some of that gap. Now that you've had them on for a while, how have they been? The only slight trade-off I see with these is possibly increased pad wear since they are used against a larger rotor. Have you noticed this to be the case? No big deal really, as a pad swap is super cheap and easy. Anyways, love your channel! I did the B&M shifter and transfer case handles 2 years ago using your videos as a guide, and it was the best upgrade (by far) that I have ever done to the Jeep. Hoping this one will be a close second. Thanks for continuing to make great content!

Thank you so much! The brakes on the Jeep are still so good it's easy to forget about them because the Jeep drives like a car now (in a good way!) Just make sure to do a good job on the bleeding process which can get tricky on some applications. I'm very particular on having a great pedal feel. My Jeep is fantastic but it took me forever to get my buddy Joe's Jeep right. I ended up buying one of those inexpensive pressure bleeders and it worked amazing. Can't believe I was doing it without that thing all these years. Do a good job "bedding them in" and you'll be thrilled.

​@@AutoEdits Just an update. I've been running this set for about 8 months now, and what a difference! I did buy a Motive pressure bleeder, which I figured was a good investment since I maintain all our cars. It definitely made the bleeding process easy (...to be honest, almost too easy. I bled the whole set like 4 times, thinking there had to be more air, but it was just nice, clean fluid). No, it doesn't stop like carbon ceramics or anything, but I no longer get nervous in hard braking. It slows my JKU on heavy Nitto 35s with tons of confidence. Even coming to a slow, controlled stop requires significantly less pedal effort, and pedal throw is maintained since it still uses the factory single piston calipers. This has been by far the best upgrade on the Jeep. Thanks again for this super helpful video.

@@AutoEdits Yes, and if you upgrade to 2-piston calipers up front while leaving the back stock, you will increase brake bias to the front axle which could affect stability under hard braking. This kit on the other hand should not affect brake bias much, if at all, since piston area is unchanged.

I have a question. I recently purchased the power stop brake kit that you took off. In researching doing brakes for JK’s using loctite blue is a very mixed message. Is it something that is recommended due to it being an after market kit? Or, is it something you really need to do when you torque to specs? There are so many different opinions from JK owners, Jeep servicemen and other mechanics saying to not use it, since the manual no where says to use anything.

Cool, but I don't understand where the extra stopping power comes from. The rotors are bigger, but if the pads are the same size, isn't the contact area the same? And if the calipers are remans of stock, does that mean you can try just larger rotors, first-and will they fit with stock calipers? Not understanding how larger rotors fit with stock tolerances.
@AutoEdits
@AutoEdits 2 жыл бұрын
The larger rotor offers more braking distance per revolution. You can't put larger rotors on without using the proper caliper mounting bracket adapters to account for that size change. Think of it this way, when you put larger tires on your vehicle it feels sluggish to get going and is harder to stop because the tires gained advantage over the vehicle. When you increase the rotor size you are increasing the braking advantage over the vehicle. Sure, the next step for even more braking is to change rotors and put larger calipers on as well but that would require a new larger brake master cylinder as well.

@AutoEdits

The brake pads are the same Z36 that I had on there. The caliper mounting brackets are unique to match the 20% larger rotors and yes you could keep your stock calipers.

I think you were overly cautious with the brake master cylinder running empty. 😅 The easiest way to do the modern cars is the one man bleeder bottle system in my opinion. You just got to make sure you always run the hose up before you run it down so there's always fluid against the bleed nipple. And also that you have fluid at the bottom of the straw in the bottle. This double air lock allows you to see more of the bubbles instead of just guessing, if that bubble was coming out of the bottom of the straw you can actually watch it leave the nipple. On the jeeps it doesn't really matter cuz ABS module is on the driver side right below the brake master cylinder. But on some vehicles you actually want to bleed in a non-traditional fashion as the ABS module can be on the passengers side. I wish point the furthest tire would be the driver's side rear tire. 😅 With the one man bleeder bottles you can get in the vehicle and push the brakes. Just make sure that you don't push it full stroke the first couple times if you're going from an empty system. Otherwise you can nick that. O-ring and then you'll be replacing the master cylinder😂😅
