Jeep Wrangler PowerStop Z36 Brake Kit GiveAway and 20,000 Mile Review

www.amazon.com...
UPDATE! The winner was picked and the brakes have been sent off to PA to the lucky dude!
Thanks so much for checking out the video... this kit is so affordable that it cost me more than half what it costs to get it new to ship it across the country... so hit that link to the amazon store and get yourself some! LOL
Here's a video I'm proud to produce on the AutoEdits Jeep Wrangler Rubicon JKU build up! Watch now to find out how to get a set of the PowerStop Z36 Extreme Truck and Tow brake pads and rotors for your Jeep Wrangler JKU.
I installed the very same kit about two years ago and have over 20,000 miles on them. When it came time to prep for the epic Trail To SEMA road trip, I thought to order a fresh set of the PowerStop Z36 pads and rotors but when I took the wheels off to do the installation... I found that the original set on the Jeep was still in fantastic condition!
So I'm going to take this opportunity to do a little "Give it forward" and offer this brand new kit to a viewer.
Simply go to the autoedits_jason Instagram page / autoedits_jason and give that a follow and look for the post with Pinto the Dog posing in front of the brakes and like and leave a comment that you want the kit. I will also check to make sure you are subscribed to the AutoEdits KZbin channel... hit the notifications bell please!
The winner will be chosen from the entries on the instagram post on March 20, 2019.
Thanks so much for the support!
Here's a link to the King of the Hammers video I mentioned in this video featuring Dan Fresh and his Every Man Challenge win.

That's so awesome. Never saw someone pay it forward like. I'd love the kit but hope a good person gets it. You rock !!!

[@AutoEdits]

You rock!

[@PillsRgood4u]

Dude...I must say your KZbin channel is one of my favorites!!!! Great Jeep videos, keep'em coming!!

[@brianhummel8659]

Auto Edits : Jason I wanted to let you know I think your videos are top class. I wish I could afford some of your modifications, but slowly and surely I may get there! Thanks for your hardwork and sharing with others. Best Regards

[@mattmcdonough707]

I’ve had a set of these same brakes on my 2008 JKU with 35’s for over 65k miles! Super happy with them ! Dust was never an issues and they have performed great

[@eodjeep2137]

I just got this exact kit and I love it! Thank you Jason! Oh, and I got it on Amazon for 280ish and with tax came to about 310ish. Most cost effective upgrade by far!

[@austincableguy]

Thanks for the review and this opportunity. Would love to have these to upgrade my JKU!

[@brucewootten3143]

I literally just put those Z36 on my wrangler a week ago and I love them. Love the review and it's good to know that I'll get longevity out of these. Looking forward to the ball joint video I have to do those next. My 2016 JKU has 57K on it now.

[@timmyb8657]

One upgrade I keep putting off, I don’t do social media so looks like ima go buy a set. Thanks for the update

[@Venumundo]

So I bought mine for my jk at 68k miles, at 100k I thought they would be worn so I bought it again except with towing brakes this time. Well they weren’t even worn half way I still had 2/3 left. I just checked mine after 67k miles and just over half have worn down. I love power stop brakes, best decision I’ve made!

[@travismcvey]

I put a set of these on my 2014 RAM. Actually I do believe your Power Stop RAM video was a huge influence on pulling the trigger on them. First impressions where WOW! Once I did the bedding procedure it was a night, and day difference between the Power Stop kit, and the OEM. The OEM pads/rotors don't hold a candle to these things. Even on just normal easy driving the stops are so much smoother, and take less pedal pressure. I'll be putting power stop kits on all my vehicles as funds allow!

[@paramedicengineer]

Go for the Synergy Ball Joints. They have been amazing for me. Stiff for the first 500 miles, but absolutely perfect after that. Rock solid up front now 👍

[@mattjeeper89]

Really enjoy watching your videos. Especially on the Jeep! I’ve learned quite a bit from your videos. Appreciate you making it simple for us no so savvy auto guys!

[@apexpredator_jku]

Great kit, has handled my 37" tires with ease. Good luck to whoever wins the giveaway, you're going to love it.

[@williameasterliniii7408]

Jason, I got the brakes on the Jeep and they are fantastic. Thank you again for the brakes and for the great videos that you put out. Keep up the great work!

[@AutoEdits]

Thank you so much as well! I hope you get lots and lots of happy adventures with them!!!

[@derekderosa13]

honestly, i installed these on my jeep a few months ago and i have no complaints but you will not notice a difference in normal driving. you will notice the difference if you are on a new jersey highway and you are constantly changing speed due to traffic they do better than OEM. unfortunately, the OEM caliber and brake system can deliver so much clamping force to a rotor. this kit won't help you stop on a dime, but if your living in a steep area or in an area where the traffic speed is constantly changing the slotting and drilling do a good job of keeping the rotors cooler than OEM and if you pair them with an alloy wheel with larger openings it helps. these will never take the place of a big brake kit with a larger master cylinder, larger calibers and larger slotted and drilled rotors. but they are still a good upgrade and way more cost effective especially in the long run.

[@derekderosa13]

THESE ARE STILL GREAT BRAKES

Just got my '16 JKU Rubi in December and would love this kit. I didn't have an IG account until - you guessed it - right now!! Love the store as well, awesome!!! Cheers from Hawaii!!!!

[@MSTrishRN]

Oh Auto Edits. I have these in my cart! Just waiting for the money. Now I will wait till you give them away. And if I dont win I will go to your Amazon Storefront and get them there. Thank you for this opportunity.

[@mikef5716]

That’s awesome Jason. We need brakes in a bad way. Son and I have slowly been upgrading the Jeep. This is on the list. Many adventures on the bucket list. Can’t wait for the memories. Say hi to pinto and toss her the ball for us.

[@Unwind7088]

Great videos! I'm new to the Jeep world and your videos are a great source of information. They are very well done and easy to follow. Great job and thank you for posting!

[@michaelbsog]

Nice to see a JKU vid again. I'd love these on my JKU.

[@albertocorrea2117]

Will they stop me from making bad decisions?

[@AutoEdits]

This is awesome! Gave me a legit LOL!!!!!!

[@kleimbach77]

lol

[@GT32004]

That is a good one 😅

[@Creed2486]

JustCreedy love your videos!

[@Monday2007]

Glad to see Autoedit’s intro music back!! Can’t wait to take home the brake kit upgrade...haha!!

[@EVH5150iii]

Love the channel! The production values is great! Hope I randomly get picked for these!

[@thealsatian4232]

Nice review. Thank you. I’d like to put a set of those brakes on my 2017 JK.

[@konnorrandolph2677]

My dad just upgraded to 34s and new gears to pull our trailer for off-roading trips. These would be fantastic for those winding roads in Colorado!

[@albertocorrea2117]

Any pictures I want to run 34s

[@ortiz73caify]

Excellent video but I would say the Dynatrac replacement ball joints would be awesome. At least it’s what I’m planning when the time comes. I’ve also heard good things about the Teraflex ball joints but there are some good options.

[@michaeldalton7511]

Hitting the Rubicon in July, this would be a super nice way to kick it off!

[@BestUnderPressure]

My Tundra isn't quite ready for brakes but I put them in my Amazon wishlist to remind me when it's time.

[@pra3t0rian]

Love your vids! Hope to see u go back to the Miller Lockwood Jeep trail soon.

[@TheNeuroticArcher]

Looking forward to that full tool review!

[@elchile007]

Waiting for the ball joint video!

[@AutoEdits]

Still working on which parts... well see!

[@Tony3deee]

Ball joint video! I was thinking the same.

[@JoseOrtiz_1416]

Would love this, been on this channel for so long and ive never won a giveaway lol! Keep up the amazing work jason as always not to mention the merch !

[@01cconaway]

I’d love to be able to stop my 35” better! Thanks for another great video and an awesome give a way

[@Skitter302]

Last night I purchased a set of power stop front pads for my 4 Door Bronco. Hopefully the weather won't slow down my JCW order.

[@flhtcui2000]

Just put 37's on my 2 door JK yesterday... got a bit of pinch seam problem but can fix... I hope.. Enjoy you video. Don't have and Instagram account but might make on because I will need the break upgrade.

[@mikepierce6417]

Nice brakes! Just upgraded to 35’s and could probably use a brake upgrade. And will have to check out your tool review as well since I’m looking for trail tools. No instagram, I’m old.

[@DDG-Goat-Farms]

Another good vid i look forward to your videos i know someone will love the break setup they get again thanks for inspiring me to get a jeep and build it up myself in my garage well my 1 and a half year old son does most of the work haha but we have a great time jeepin all because of you brotha

[@andrewcrane6020]

Hey Jason you have more access to the JK Nation with manual transmission highly recommend Royal Purple synchromax night and day difference manual transmission

[@AutoEdits]

Thanks for the suggestion!

[@TheNeuroticArcher]

I commented on instagram, my name's Jerptivities :D Pinto?!? You see that shiny new brake kit? Bring it here bud! Good Girlllll!

[@2015_Rubicnn]

Alright, I need these...the Rubicon is on the agenda this summer.....🇺🇸

[@BNBoogie]

Love the Craftsman impact...just bought one myself

[@oraivan1]

Pintos 9? Wow that great dog looks like she’s 4 🐶 I love that dog!!!!

[@danylaliberte600]

My jeep is so heavy now with all the stuff so i would really need it!

[@boblaurie6281]

I’m putting the powerstop brake pads on my Jeep this week,hope I don’t mess it up

[@AutoEdits]

Good luck, take your time and enjoy the process!

[@jorgeramos6981]

For new ball joints try using Carli Suspension they make the best suspension that you can actually jump off road and it won't brake they also started making ball joints

[@justiceknight6877]

Have those same boots, extremely comfortable

[@danconatser8699]

posted on IG. Been looking at the powerstop kit for a while. just replaced my ball joints at 130,000 miles. Maybe too long to wait..... your videos are great. Can Pinto come over to assist in putting on the kit?

[@ThePete2432]

I need them. My 2015 jkur has 53,000 miles on the stock rotors. I saved up for the metalkloak lift and 37’s.. I’ll have the white version of your Jeep!

[@AMERICANLEGENDModelBuilder]

I did the Pad,rotor and caliper set from power for my wife's Pontiac Vibe, Love them💝! They don't make much for Mustang II or Dodge Dakota 😞😖

[@jackryandrake8490]

That brake kit would be perfect for my Jeep

[@Tony3deee]

Hey Jason, great videos! You’re the reason I’m running Metal Cloak Overline Fenders. Question: you are saying you were considering changing the whole kit, pads and rotors. Do you normally do that versus just replacing the pads?

[@ernestrodriguez4659]

Hey brother! Don’t forget to show us the ball joint repair! Keep it up! Thanks.

[@tpm1717]

Please please please pick me! I’m always paying it forward. This would be an absolute treat to win! Please!

[@curtisbridgen1493]

I definitely need them on my 2008 jk before I put on my 35's.

[@Strikerage]

I'll be hitting up your Instagram for sure! I'm moving into a new home on my birthday coming up. Lots of money going into the house. No money for new brakes and rotors. I definitely need them after the Rubicon trip last year. 😂😂 Think about me for my birthday, my good man! Great video as always!

[@JP-ic1fi]

Glad for the guy in PA, bummed for me. Guess I gotta go buy the damn things. LoL Keep up the great videos, thx!

[@Ghost-rw5jr]

I can't stop....wanting those

[@oraivan1]

Oh I’m going in with everything metalcloak cuz of you👍👍👍

[@Tomaszeking]

As alway very nice video to watch. Really enjoy that Pinto the dog action :)

[@Cobb]

5:30 there is a single frame shot of you standing at the table from the beginning with the brake kit out and your head hung down. I was difficult to get it to stop on it.

[@xTinBenderX]

You're a good man Charlie Brown

[@robburnquist]

Those are nice wheels.

[@BADD400]

Great video Jason so cool. Love Pinto. Your Jeep is awesome

[@chrisraistrick5355]

ill take them for sure thanks

[@309jeepsters]

I would really appreciate them. I have a 2015 Jeep Wrangler jku Sport and those would really help stop it with the lift and bigger tires. I was going to buy this set up with my tax return but I get to pay in an addition $850. Thanks for all the great videos! I have been a subscriber since I purchased my Jeep.

[@TheBearDenPhotography]

Hey, it's time for the Pinto and Jason show! Looking good! Would luv to say mail the kit to me, however, I just had a new set put on last spring. I'm sure someone out there can use it.

[@brianfedie8046]

Can't imagine what could be wrong with this great offer, and yet there are always a half a dozen people that rush out and give you a thumbs down. Haters!

[@santanubose1653]

Hey love your vids, have a question does JKs have a solid front axle, if so With difflocks engaged is is possible to steer without damaging locked front differentials?

[@piledriveroffroad3743]

I've got 15k on PowerStop Z36 for my JKU on 37s & imo, best brake bang for your buck & highly recommended it. My one & only regret is purchasing from JC Whitney. I know you have a mutual relationship with them & I'm sure they see to it that you're taken care of but for a regular Joe like me, by far the absolute worst customer service nightmare I've ever had to deal with. They erroneously sent me a kit for a Yukon & the rabbit hole I found myself in to rectify that situation was mind numbing. I was stuck in this never ending loop as I was passed from one rep to the next. It took nearly a 3 weeks & a dozen calls just to get them to send me an RMA label. Their whole call center staff needs to be retrained! Wish I had Googled them prior to purchasing because I would've learned that I'm only one of literally dozens that have had similar experiences with them.

[@apexpredator_jku]

I feel your pain! They sent me calipers for a Silverado. I got caught in the same never ending loop, chasing my tail. I actually gave up. It was easier for me to sell the wrong calipers they sent me & then purchase the correct calipers elsewhere.

[@JP-ic1fi]

Oh yeah, definitely need this upgrade on my JK. Instagram done!

[@Umairahmad1989]

Sorry I'm a noob so the ball joints shouldn't move when I do that and how do I follow the facebook for contest?? Still waiting on the engine cleaning video lol! Love the channel and journey!

[@sareynoldssr]

Awesome pay it forward video! Cool!

[@Rag3QuitnRob3rt]

Wish that you had a set for a TJ available, but it is what it is, m8. 😁

[@mikehoffman3690]

You need to hit King of the Hammers next year.

[@canalesivany]

I need that for my 2007

[@woonicon3741]

I guess you'll probably won't ship them to Belgium :D, but great video once again. Thanks for the inspiration. Greetings from Belgium. oh btw. Anyone ever told you , you look a lot like Keegan-Michael Key?

[@AUTOBOT37]

Any plans on Jeep Maintenance Video(s) (ie: Coolant Flush, Transmission Fluid Change, etc.)?

[@Gunny559]

I need these in my life! I watched your first video the day you uploaded and I still haven’t added a set :(

[@jamesbarclay1300]

Am I doing something wrong?!? Every time I click the Amazon shop link it wants me to save something to my computer. That doesn't sound right. Great videos as always Jason!

[@nickolsen2175]

These will help me when I'm wheeling send them over!

[@jclee0314]

curious if there is any concern running slotted and drilled rotors off road through muddy terrain? I would think there could be some debris getting lodged in the grooves and slots and scoring the pads. Just asking because I am about to get the 3.5 game changer fox edition kit installed with 35's, so I am looking at brakes next.

[@MrProchargedStang]

Not just related to brakes, but I've watched all your jeep videos and I've got a question. If you did it over again, would you still start with a Rubicon? I noticed in this video you have the Rubicon sticker removed. Obviously Rubicons are the best if someone keeps their Jeep stock, but if not, could it be more cost-effective to start with the sport model? Other than the locking differentials and the beefier front axle housing (and the cool name), is there anything Rubicon specific from the factory that you still use on your Jeep?

[@AutoEdits]

Absolutely. 4:1 transfer case , e lockers and axles are still worth it to me. Unless I had an axle sponsor, would do it this way again.

[@MrProchargedStang]

@@AutoEdits Great to know, thanks! I was leaning the same way. Now the toughest decision is whether to wait for the Gladiator or go with the wrangler Great videos! All the best

[@mikerivers122]

hey Jason, did you look into the tera flex big break kit? wondering if the dual caliper will be an improvement over the oem that power-stop uses?

[@Follett2121]

What kinda dog is she, so adorable.

[@leskobrandon538]

Waiting for a ball joint and RCV axle video

[@jrben21]

Nice video as usual. I’ll be needing those... but I don’t have Instagram 😢

[@leskobrandon538]

I need those brakes as most of my money is going to Bosley...LOL

[@co4x4]

Ohhh great timing on these to try my luck! I dont have Instagram though. I'm upgrading to 37's on my 2 door this March. My name is Zdenek (Denny). Cheers from Denver CO THANK YOU!

[@inqufox1750]

Depending on the dog breed she could actually be considered middle aged, i have a german shepherd and their average life span is 10-13 years, they are considered elderly at 8, but he's 13 this year and when he's up and about he's still just as full of energy is when he was a pup, not to long ago it snowed where he live and he had a blast just like when we was younger

[@cardriver1588]

I need a power stop z23 break kit for my 2003 Pontiac grand am

[@mikehoffman3690]

As always, very informative video.

[@Jbawb]

Lovin the jeep! Ive been debating this kit. Looks like i know which Ill be going with! Just followed on Insta.

Hey is there anyway to enter without Instagram? I do not have one. Excellent videos. Keep them coming! Thanks!

[@AutoEdits]

No worries, for anyone that mentions this I'll enter your user name in manually.

[@jefferyfunkhouser9905]

Thank you!

[@Shakshuka69]

I envy your ability to not daily your JK. I have a 2013 JKUR 6 speed just like yours and I'm closing in on 60k miles over the last two years 😣 Can't wait for winter to end so the Miata can takeover daily duty.

[@BustedWalletGarage]

If you throw in some drill bits I’ll make ‘em fit on my f150

[@AutoEdits]

LOL! I actually love the Z36 brakes on my Ram... legit awesomeness.

[@gershin9253]

Love the videos dude you have helped me a lot!!!

[@NotICON]

What ball joints are you thinking of going with? Im going to have to change mine here shortly, and Im leaning towards the Teraflex ones because of the cost difference.

[@mattcerbone4313]

NotICON -Teraflex ball joints are excellent. 20” rims with 35s”.........38,000 on them. Still like new

[@NotICON]

@@mattcerbone4313 what year is your Jeep? I keep seeing that with the newer models you will have to do some grinding on the axle knuckle. However, on the Terafles site they say they have fixed that issue and you will no longer haver to do it.

[@habaz72]

So I just went and created an instagram acct to enter this contest. Thanks! I couldn't get the same username but I did use the same email address.

[@WayywayyH]

Too bad I don't have insta, my brakes are at like 3mm right now
