New Brake Pad & Rotor Kit from 1AAuto.com 1aau.to/ia/1APBS00605
This video shows you how to install new front brake pads and rotors from TRQ on your 1997-2006 Jeep Wrangler. 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:
1997 Jeep Wrangler
1998 Jeep Wrangler
1999 Jeep Wrangler
2000 Jeep Wrangler
2001 Jeep Wrangler
2002 Jeep Wrangler

Perfectly explained. I had been putting this off until I stumbled upon this video, took me a bit longer than 10 mins but got it done.

[@RockMauler]

Was not aware that the brake clip hardware was optional

[@rmartin1914]

Why didn’t you put clips on the pads? Is that unsafe

[@Jake-pq3iz]

The rust….the rust.
