Got sick of looking at rusty rotor hats so I went with power stop brakes. Had to use slashed to get rear rotors off. Was surprised how much the pads had left with 62,500 miles on them.

Rear brake components don't get worked as hard as the fronts do.

Just ask @cosine he knows!
The OEM pads are a high mile, low dust (and low bite) compound, that's why they last so long and don't stop very well :(
Let us know how you like the Powerstops when you get time on them, should be a nice upgrade.

I’ve had power stop brakes on my other jeeps and liked them. And a lot better looking than the rusty rotor hats on oem
