Planning on a full brake service...looking for suggestions

[LouisvEarlleJT]

Good pads, and rotors if you’re are too thin, and call it a day. (Also service the calipers, lube pins, etc.)

I would not worry about brake lines until the truck got closer to 8-10 years old. Right now I doubt yours have even started to deteriorate.

Not interested in those due to the drilled rotors and I betca those rotors would rust up so damn fast in my conditions.

I have power stops on 2 of my vehicles (on the second set on my 2015 countryman 197k New Hampshire family Hockey hauler) I have had Zero issues with rust.
I fully plan on putting them on my 23 JT when it comes time to replace the factory set.

yea I bet you don’t go on the beach 3-4xs a week in a hyper-saltine area. Plus again I don’t do drilled roters, especially on vehicles that I off-road where debris can get stuck into.

Do what you want, but dirt doesn’t get caught in drilled rotors. I lived on the ocean for 19 years. I’ve never had z36 rotors rust.

The holes and slots actually allow dirt to clear from rotor and pad surfaces, cleaning them of debris more quickly.

I think the factory brakes are awesome and had planned to buy oem when the time came.

I live in New Hampshire, rust free means the frame is still there

Powerstop rotors are treated extremely well. I’ve not seen them rust ever. I’ve used z36 on many vehicles. They’ve never rusted.

I installed the powerstop kit on my 2014 Tundra (sold) and my 2010 4Runner (still own). I was impressed with the quality, especially considering the price.

EBC pads and rotors. Motul 600 brake fluid. KLM stainless brake lines. Custom made to length and color. Fit like oem. Also when you do the fluid flush and bleed. Do it with the ABS energized.

Agreed ^^^

I will stay for the OPs needs and driving style I would recommend the YellowStuff pads. They throw alot of brake dust......BUT the braking performance both cold and hot is amazing.

EBC doesn't show a rear kit for the JT.

I guess the OP missed the fact that PowerStop has coated, solid rotors.
